If you do not have general anesthesia, you will be able to begin drinking shortly after the delivery. The hospital may require you to have a liquid meal on the first meal after the baby is born to make sure you don’t vomit and to be easy on your bowels. After that, you will probably have what’s called a surgical soft diet which includes things that won’t make you strain at your bowel movements and tear the sutures. Even so, it looks like a regular diet and is completely palatable.

If a lot of bowel touching was done during the surgery, your bowels may shut down for a while and you may need to have a liquid diet for longer so that you don’t stress your already stressed bowels. Your surgeon will tell you if that was the case and you will have to endure a liquid diet for a day or two. Generally, within a week, you will be eating a completely regular diet and will hopefully be having bowel movements. You will be taking a stool softener during this time so your stools will be soft and you won’t have to strain as much.

You should avoid carbonated beverages or anything like raw vegetables the first week as these cause gas, which can be uncomfortable in the first week following the cesarean section.
