episiotomy still sore after 13 weeks? TMI aleart!!
Hi ladies,
Just wondering if it is the norm for an episiotomy to be still sore after 13 weeks? I got my hubby to check (tmi) and he said its abit swollen. I hurts really bad when i go to the loo!! I have also got massive piles (tmi)
I had an infection in the stiches a couple of days after, the stiches have not been checked in over 10 weeks. My 6 week check was a joke, all they did was weigh me!!
Will it get any better?xx
Thanks

yeah go to the doctors - i posted for advice about poss needing it redone as my stitches didnt heal properly and i was told just to leave it for 6 months and see...DD is 14 weeks tomorrow and went to docs on Monday as still uncomfortable (cant comtemplate having sex right now) she says its healed but maybe slight infection so swabbed it and gave me antibiotics but wont get results til tomorrow...
Sometimes mine nips a bit when i pee (like when it was just done only it was excrutiating then) my 6 week check was the same as everyone elses pointless.....my midwife discharged me to hv at 12 days despite me saying it was agony even with pain killers and 'gaping' byt she told me it was meant to be like that./..
hope things are ok..

I'm almost 12 months post birth, I had an episiotomy but suffered with the recovery very badly. I had infections and I had a "pit" that didn't heal.
Anyway cut a long story short I'm waiting on a post-birth operation to repair me
I do hope you're ok, it's horrible living with it when it's so painful x
