My DS is 3mths and was born by emergency c section. I only got as far as 6cm dilated during labour and my periods returned after 6wks. I used to be able to use regular and super tampons and found that when I got my first period back I couldn't use a tampon as it was just too painful and actually wouldn't go in. I was really distressed and felt there was something wrong with me and just didn't try again. A month later I did try and managed to use a tampon but not on day 1 of my period. Even then I could only use light flow tampons and a regular one just feels too big and painful. Has anyone else had this?
