Wonder if anyone can help me,
(sorry for tmi) I was induced as it was discovered during a ctg that my lo wasnt coping well with my contractions. The doctor tried to break my waters to check for meconium only to find they had already gone (still to this day dont know when they went lol) and i found this rather painful and then later on he attached a wee wire to lo's scalp to better monitor his heart rate during my contractions and again I found this agony!!
Anyhoo my son was eventually born by emergency c-section, but im finding now almost 14 weeks later that my vagina is sore during sex and I just wondered if it was normal for it to take that long to heal??
Any advice would be much appreciated

Thanks for taking time to reply ladies!!
Its nice to know im not alone lol, i still feel numb where they cut me for the c-section which isnt the problem during sex its just in me lady bits lol...can only assume its from the doc poking about....i can remember trying to climb up the back of the bed to get away from him until he got the stirrups out and pinned me down lol!!
hopefully it will all heal soon
Thanks again xx
