1 week after birth vagina suddenly soo painful

[winegums]

After giving birth I felt fine down there except the stitches which hurt underneath... Now a week later my vagina at the front not underneath -if that makes sense- has become soo painful it feels like I've been punched there and even hurts when I wipe, feels like I'm pressing on a bruise or something

Sorry so hard to explain lol

I had this, i ended up walking like john wayne for a while and it was painful if i stood up for too long too, keep taking painkillers if you can, ice packs are ment to be good. I no this is gonna sound like forever but by 3 weeks my pain had gone and now i get the odd ache, but it is normal, but more annoying than anything

I still get this and I know what you mean. Feels like a bruise with me for a long time. Even still get stabbing pains.

OMG I know what you mean! I feel like I've been kicked in the foof by a horse! No one tells you about the bruising but it's very bad. xx

I also had this and its only now at 4 weeks pp that i can touch the area and its completely pain free. I wish someone would tell you about all the pains and bruises after having a baby.x

3 weeks pp mine is lessening but at week 2 OW.... I think once the stitches sorted themselves out I then realised the brusing pain. The kicked by a horse comment made me laught that pretty much sums it up for me. I too wish people would tell you about this.
