I had my daughter 5 weeks ago and after a long 15 hours, 3 of which I spent pushing she was finally delivered by ventouse.. I was also given a large cut (well in my opinion!) on the outside the scaring is about 5-7cm long!! Now I am in severe pain even now! I admit I have slept with my partner on 2 occasions with no pain at all it just seems each night it hurts terribly! In fact it's becoming deepressing as if it isn't hard running around after a new born to deal with this pain aswell is unbearable. Sorry if tmi but I have felt inside and I have a lump which I am confident is scar tissue but again it's very painful! It's now getting to the point I struggle to get up once sAt down if I drive for more than 20 mins it's awful and generally moving around doing day to day bits! To look at its completely healed u wouldn't of even known I had a cut but the pain is unreal! Is this normal and is there any advice to help ease my pain I can't cope with it anymore I'm beginning to feel it's more painful than the birth!! X
