Ab Weakness after C-Section?

sevenpurpleshoes

Hi Ladies,

 I had a C-Section 8 weeks ago and I feel like it is really difficult to sit straight up from a laying down position because my abs feel weak.  I often have to roll to my side and use my arms to push myself up.  Did anyone else experience this? It's my first so I'm not sure if this is normal....

If so - how long did it take before you felt back to normal?

 Thanks!
