I have the same issue unfortunately.. do you have anything that helps with it?

Mine still itches almost 4 years after. Especially if I get sweaty.

Yesss mine does my dr gave me thrush cream to put on it

I am 9 years post partum and still itch 🤣

Itched always and forever.

Mine itches above it where It’s numb so I can’t even feel when I’m itching but I feel it needs itching😩😩😩

That’s nerve regeneration, it’s the final parts of healing. You’ll get lots of sensation back as it goes on, it’s nerve signals firing.

Don’t itch them, doesn’t help as it’s not an itch.

Tap the area hard to confuse the signal and it stops the itching.

I don’t have a c section but I did have abdominal surgery, and sometimes my scars itch even after 3 years 😂 it usually happens if I’m wearing something tight and sweat etc

i really want another baby

i am merely a few months pp but i want another baby, but i am scared of the age gap (2 under 2) and also with everything going on in the world i just think its not the best idea at the moment but i am having crazy baby fever and miss having a newborn🥹

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Has anyone ever had pain in the bone at the bottom of the lady area?

How I can only describe it is I feel like I have a fracture or the bone is broken right at the bottom of my vagina bone obviously don’t think it’s to the extent but that’s how it feels. I had it in my last pregnancy and the pain went few months postpartum now it’s back again with this pregnancy. These are the results that u e googled I think I may have the first one has anyone every had this or something similar

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

Homebirth?

I am thinking I want a homebirth (second baby) for a few different reasons but my husband is very against it, he is worried about things going wrong and we are a 30 minute drive from the hospital. Has anyone been in a similar position and what did you end up doing? Any advice? 🙏

Midwife check

Can someone remind me when the midwife visits you at home? Is it the day after you’re discharged? And is that the same on the weekend or do they not visit then? Thanks!
