  Mind were about the same pain wise, but they lasted a few days longer than after no3.
  My womb relaxed a few hour after having this lo, so maybe that's why they lasted longer?!?
  Hope the remainder of you pg is happy and healthy.

  mine were quite bad with number 4. Mainly because he was a very quick arrival and i then hemorrhaged and my womb would not contract so I was given medication and took to theatre to manilpulate the womb with the Drs hand...gross!!!!!!!! I think the mixture of all these things made my after pains very severe. They only lasted a few days though and were worse when I was feeding him.
  good luck

  thanks for you replys ladies. I think that's what worrying me abit about this one dee dee. I'm that with num3 i had to have my placenta removed manually and he was a very quick labour too. The midwifes have already warned me that i could find the same needing to happen this too because with no2 not all my placenta came out straight away so i had to have a d&c a few weeks later when i was discovered and then like said with ds3 it just refused to come away at all and i found the after pains so painfull especially when feeding so with the midwife saying this one may do the same i'm a nervous wreck already lol x

  My afterpains were bad after number 4 but I think that was partly as I had retained pacenta so was still 'in labour' trying to reject it.
  
  Hope all goes well for you this time. xx

  I think mine were about the same with baby 4 as they were with baby3.
  Try not to get too worked up about it, I know its hard to do, but hopefully for you it will be OK and not really any worse xxxx

  the good thing is that they know you might have problems so they can be prepared. They may even put you up on a drip to counteract any blood loss. Also, dont be afraid to ask for pain killers. After pains are genuine so make sure they give you something strong to get through them.
  
  Fingers crossed you will be fine. Even tho the pains are bad during labour and after sometimes, just remember the bigger picture which is the end result....a baby!
