The goal of this clinical trial is to compare the effectiveness of gum chewing vs Paula exercises in patients after cesarean delivery. The main question it aims to answer is: does the Paula method hasten the time to recovery of bowel function compared to gum chewing after cesarean delivery. Participants will be asked to either chew gum or to do Paula exercises. The time to restoration of bowel function after the surgery will be measured.
