Would that be your painkilling pessary?

I think I was told "I'm just going to pop this pain killer up your bottom" - I was past caring.

I had this after my 4th birth, was not very pleased. Hurt more than the birth!

I've had two vaginal births, and both times, had things 'pushed' back up my bum without forewarning!

Also just been on a thread here with alot of people having the same??!!

To check the stitches hadn't sewn the arsehole.

Nit what you want after a 12 hour labour!

Lmao I had two caesarians with morphine pessaries each time. Bloody marvellous things, I had less of a problem with that than the doctor who shoved his forearm up my vajajay without even a how do you do! Although proceedings were lightened when my DH said to the doctor whilst he was elbow deep, "tell me doctor, will she ever play piano again" strangely only me and DH laughed, everyone else in the room were stunned into silence which only made me giggle more which then made extraction of arm more tricky. Ooh happy memories! Grin
