I'm 4 weeks postpartum tomorrow and I'm still sore down there!
I tore pretty badly during birth with labial vaginal and perineum tears.. I had to have quite a few internal and external stitches however the stitches have now dissolved and feel ok now although still a little tender..
I have been getting quite a bit of discomfort in my urethra though not when I wee or anything like that but generally it feels bruised & grazed.. Is this normal post partum ? I had to have a catheter inserted after birth because my bladder wasn't emptying it didn't stay in though it was only to drain the bladder once.. Could this have something to do with it? Please help!
