A woman has shared the side effects she has experienced after having nine c-sections.

Mercedes, known for her "homeschooling and homesteading" TikToks, shared a post on the social media platform, where she talked about some of the "crazy" side effects she has faced after delivering nine babies via c-section over 15 years. Her last C-section was completed less than a year ago.

And while she reinforced several times that this was all worth it for her to welcome nine beautiful and healthy babies into the world, she wanted to make people aware of some of the things that could happen during repeat c-sections.

First, she said she is still "completely numb" in her stomach. She says she cannot feel a thing, and it's been going on for a few years now.

Second, she says that she now experiences bad cramps in her uterus when she sneezes. "It didn't happen a few c-sections ago," she explained, adding that this is a more recent development.

Lastly, she says that it's become very hard for her to tone up or lose weight since having all of these babies, since the muscles have been cut and separated.

People shared their thoughts about the TikToker's story.

People jumped into the comments to talk about what the OP shared, with one person sympathizing with her story. "My core is completely destroyed from an emergency c-section 12 months ago and that was enough for me," one person wrote.

However, most people were eager to joke about the sheer volume of children that the OP was raising. "The number after eight," one person asked incredulously about the number of children she had.

Meanwhile, plenty of people offered less than helpful (albeit hilarious) suggestions of how she could prevent a 10th c-section, with multiple people suggesting she have a zipper installed instead.

Once, larger families like this were the norm, but since they've become so infrequent these days, it's always surprising to hear when people have a lot of kids. Hopefully the OP gets some relief from her side effects, and takes some time to heal before trying for baby number 10.
