Please go to the hospital where you had your Caesarean. It may be worthwhile getting an enema. After that you should use a mild laxative like a Dulcoflex tablet every evening till you start having normal motion.

You can take rectal suppository for immediate relief and then add good amounts of fibre and water to your diet, else continue softening syrup daily for a few days
