DD was born in early Jan and required ventouse assistance.I had an episiotomy which was declared "beautifully healed" by my GP at the 6-wk check up. I didn't really believe her at the time but hoped it just needed a bit more time.
However 5 months on it is still sore, especially in cold weather or when I get tired. On good days, I feel all is well and think it's finally gone away, then it starts bothering me again.
Is this normal? How long till YOU thought it fully healed?? (And I mean not when a medical person declared it healed)
