My DD is 12 weeks old born by forceps and she is ebf.. I have had on and off pains, aching and soreness in my ladybits since she was born. The pain has got alot worse the last 2 weeks and gp thought I could have an infection. Had 7 days on antibiotics but the pain is still there. I do have another appoint tomorrow but have heard that it can be vaginal dryness due to lack of oestrogen when breastfeeding. My bits are rather raw looking and have increased discoloured discharge. (lovely!)
Anyway, after 12 weeks I've had enough- I can't walk or sit without grazing psin and it's ruining my time with dd. I'm now considering stopping breastfeeding in hope that it helps as I am getting really quite miserable.
Has anyone experienced this and what did it turn out to be? I seem to be flogging a dead horse with the gp as they blame the forceps and won't refer me but I'll def stand my ground tomorrow!
Boohoo :(
