Recovery

I’m 3 weeks postpartum and have found that whilst my bleeding has reduced I still feel quite bruised downstairs. I’ve had a look and everything looks normal but I’m a FTM so not sure how long I should feel this sensitive… how is everyone else’s recovery going?

I’m the exact same, just feel bruised but stitches have healed and hardly any bleeding now x

I would say my stitches have dissolved - I can’t see/feel them which is why the feeling of bruising still has surprised me

I didn’t have. Stitches- luckily I only had a graze- but I was still abit sore till about week 4 didn’t help when I was pulling myself off bed etc (short arse) but found that. Having a pillow underneath when sat down took edge. Off and air dry after bath I’d just lay on bed in towel while feeding. Hope it gets better for you soon ❤️

Same

With my first it was about 6 weeks before I stopped feeling so sore, on my second now and just over 3 weeks and still feeling sore but not as much as I did with my first :)

I’ve been taking ‘arnica’ tablets, they are completely natural and my bruising and everything healed so quick!
