What to eat after caesarean section

A cesarean section is what we usually call a cesarean section. It means that when a pregnant woman is giving birth to a baby, she cannot give birth naturally due to special reasons and needs to undergo surgery to take the baby out of her belly. Many mothers feel deeply that cesarean section is extremely painful. Giving birth is really not easy.
