I am also 2 weeks pp and feel the same thing. I believe the right side is where they finish everything off at the end so it might be a bit tighter. But if it starts to get unbearable call a doctor
I’ve had something similar so I went back to the maternity unit to have it checked. The doctor said it looked ok but would take a swab anyway. They rung me yesterday to say the swabs back & I do have an infection so now I’ve got a week of antibiotics. If in any doubt get it checked
I was just at my 8 weeks postpartum check up and the OB said the same as the others are saying, that’s where they finished. I had a pain similar to you when I was 4 weeks pp and then again around 6 weeks pp and haven’t had it since.
I feel that periodically. Like one day it’ll be the left side then the right side and some days there’s no pain. Idk everyone is different. Of course if you feel really concerned bring it up with your OB
One side aches and pulls more because that’s the side baby was pulled out from - they told me in the hospital. I was exactly the same but it does get better x
I feel now at 8 weeks postpartum i wondered what this sensation was. Nice to know we can all relate to one another, has put my mind at rest.
I am sure I had this with my first section and they said it was where they will have closed it off so like pull a bit harder
