Ok, have name-changed cos am really embarrassed about this problem.
Gave birth to dc over 13 months previous. Had an epidural and dc was a ventous (sp?) delivery. I had superficial tears which healed reasonably well. However, 'down below' looks like a car crash. The vaginal opening is still huge, and I can't feel dh during penetration (so sorry for tmi). I routinely suffer from haemorrhoids, and I cannot control my flow of urine (I haven't had any accidents as such, and can hold my urine reasonably well, but will leak if I hold it too long on the way to the loo, fumbling with buttons etc). I'm still bfing, and the GP said my hormones are not back to 'normal' so it will take time. I am on the list to see a gynae specialist, but really concerned. I've just turned 30, and don't want to think that I will remain like this after only having 1 child.
Does this sound normal?
