i have a embarassing question to ask for those you had a vaginal birth

but i am so embarrased in case I am the only one it is happening to

It's bound not to be just you who's suffering...please share, it'll stop you worrying. x

Fire away.

I bet you aren't the only one who it is happening to...what ever it is.

whatever it is, you can bet your bottom dollar that someone, if not dozens of people, will have struggled with it on here.

Uncontrollable fanny farts, prolapsed bowel, broken down perinium.... and that's just me at this moment in time. Honestly, not worth getting embarrassed over. You'll feel better for saying!

between us, at least one of us must have experienced it

I can pretty much guarantee that it (whatever it is!) will be happening to other people. Dont be embarrassed, share with us and make yourself feel 100 times better.

We can help xx

Ask away, there's no embarassment with us here.

yes share - i've had to make yet another doc appt today for my mangled bits.

im pretty sure it wont be as embarrassing as you think. fire away x

ok then but dont laugh !

I am getting really smelly down there , well since the last 2 weeks ( I gave bith 4 weeks ago) is that normal ? I have still got my period from the birth but really light though.

I love embarrassing. It's my bread and butter. Go on.

did you have any stitches?  i got a mild infection and first sign was a strange smell - tiz wonderful this birth business isn't it!

well for my sister i remember it being completely normal. she was showering ALOT because of it. it soon died down though.

I think that with hormonal changes and everything settling down that it sounds normal to me, especially if you still have some lochia. Unless of course you have any discomfort or discharge?
