Vagina after birth???

Okay this is so embarrassing and I’m going to my gyno soon at the beginning of April. My vagina never smelled bad before I gave birth like even during pregnancy it never smelled bad. I’ve always used ph balanced non fragrance soap to wash with down there because I’m super sensitive to soaps and never had any issues. Since giving birth a year ago tho my vagina smells so bad all the time. Even fresh out of the shower it still smells. It doesn’t smell fishy and I don’t have abnormal discharge or anything I do have more discharge than I did before I had a baby but I regularly change my underwear and use baby wipes everytime I go to the bathroom and the smell just never goes away. It smells more just musty. It’s embarrassing because I don’t want to have sex with my partner because of it like it makes me so self conscious. I am still breastfeeding so I’m not sure if maybe that’s why? My body Odor was so bad the first few months but isn’t anymore except my vagina. I never feel clean because of the smell and I just wonder if anyone else has a different smell now that you’ve had a baby? Again I’m going to my dr so before anyone says I need to I am I just am wondering if I’m the only one. I also drink a lot of water and regularly drink no sugar added 100% cranberry juice and pineapple juice to try and hero because I used to drink that all the time before getting pregnant to help prevent uti’s and kidney stones and it had me smelling like candy not gonna lie but it does nothing for me now.

Hey! I had the same problem! It’s not you! Nothing I did worked until I saw my doctor! I had a uti the whole
Time and it went away with medication I had to take
3 times a day for like 2 weeks.
