What do your lady bits look like after vaginal birth?

[kebabbits]

Is it just ME or is anyone else a bit shocked by the appearance of their bits after giving birth vaginally?

I mean all I seem to see is the internal muscles - I'm sure there used to be more external skin there.

Should I just stop looking?!

(I'm not using my normal nickname on this thread, no chance!)

[starlover]

mine look the same as they did before.

[marne]

Your brave, i was to scaired to look.

[Chandra]

I think it may get better with time, but in the mean time there's not much you can do about it so I think that probably it is a good idea to stop looking...

[kebabbits]

Well now I feel like a FREAK!

It's been a few years already ...

It's not exactly something I can look up on Google though is it?!

[sassy]

Never looked.
FAB name BTW!

[lilibet]

Not something I have ever had the urge to look at tbh, not before children and certainly not after three!!

Why do you look?

[JoolsToo]

what an odd thread

[kebabbits]

I can't believe you haven't looked!

I looked about an hour afterwards.

I want to check out DH's view of things...

and see whether they did blanket stitch or what.

[JoolsToo]

i was lucky it took a gorgeous australian dr 2 hours to sew me up and he must've taken pity on me and given me a designer vagina as my bits look better than they did before LOL mind u im pregnant again so god knows what it'll look like after November!

[kebabbits]

[kebabbits]

[foolysh]

Found a scarey picture of prolapse .

[JoolsToo]

there was another thread on the same bit of anatomy a while ago by someone called poppypower ........ (a one time poster )

[SPARKLER1]

PMSL - have read through this thread and have visions of contortionist (sp?) mumnsnetters at all angles in front of a mirror.

[handlemecarefully]

Well lets say I studiously avoided looking until a good few months after the event by which time everything had recovered...

[tillykins]

my tummy is too big to see over

[foolysh]

You really don't want to see this.
Gawd, no wonder it hurt so much.

[jessicasmummy]

EWWWWWW - feel sick now! My bits seem to be the same as before having jess - DH certainly hasnt commented!
