I’m 4.5 weeks pp and unsure if my stitches have healed properly. It’s not causing much pain anymore but something just doesn’t feel right. Will this get checked at the 6/8 week check or will I have to make an appointment with a different healthcare professional?

Your midwife would normally ask you from my experience, I had stitches with my first daughter and I told her that I was still sore and things and she asked if I would like for her to check to make sure things were okay

The doctors should ask you if everything is OK and if your worried they will check for you x

Im 3.5 weeks PP and no one checked my stitches when I was discharged from hospital or any appointments so on Tuesday I called the community coordinator and asked for an appointment for them to be checked and they booked me an appointment the next day

The only thing I noticed that was weird was hard tissue from healing .. it felt “off” and “weird” too
