I’m still sore after birth I had a very quick delivery with a 2nd degree tear and an episiotomy. I’m 5 weeks post birth is it normal to still have pain when sitting down? Not sure if the internal stitches have healed.

Im 3.5 weeks post birth, had a forcep delivery with an episiotomy and still getting sore if I do too much and when sitting down! Hoping it will get better soon 🥴x

I’m 7 week pp and had a tear and stitches internal, I’m still feeling it when I wee it’s like pressure not pain but a pushing pressure and when I sit down to long x
Yeah I know the feeling. Hoping it heals for you both too soon.
I feel like my pelvic floor has completely gone. I can’t tighten it anymore if that makes sense. Not sure if that will just come back over time 😬

8 weeks pp and 4th degree tear + episiotomy and still sore at times

I also had quick delivery , 2nd degree tear and episiotomy with forceps . I’m mostly comfortable but still finding if I sit on a hard chair i can still feel discomfort . I also feel like my pelvic floor is destroyed 😢 I had a call from the hospital offering pelvic health physio as I had forceps but haven’t got round to ringing them back yet . I plan to do exercises in the day but always end up forgetting !
