hi ladies well i was hoping to have a better 1st post but i need to ask u all a question regarding ...tears to loer regions after labour .......:roll:
ok so on my notes they have written i have a 2nd degree tear , i didnt know what this meant and i assumed it musnt be bad as i have no sitiches, i asked my midwife yesterday and she explained it means skin and muscle torn ..ouch ......anyway i didnt feel too sore until this morning and when i got up my ...ooh sorry TMI!! ...bum hole was killing me so i asked my oh to have a quick look (omg ) and he said its got a deep cut and a lump half the size of it , yikes!! is this where i have torn i wonder although i would have thought the tear would be closer to the front??!!
im wondering if this is normal and if anyone else has had this ?
thanks ladies

I also found those gel pads you put in the freezer and then pop in your pants helped with the swelling and discomfort.
