Post partum afterpains

I'm 8 weeks post partum, had a vaginal birth with a small episiotomy. Recovery has been pretty good, but I've just recently started to get internal shooting pains down below. Not an anatomical expert but would say it's at the bottom of my uterus towards the front.

I also feel really bloated. I wonder if it might be ovulation pain or period pains but they feel too low.

I also am really praying I am not pregnant. But that would v unlikely as only done it once and it took us ages to get pregnant last time.

If anyone has any experience of this pls can you share? Thanks! X

It's been a while since I had mine but if you've DTD once, I'd POAS.

You are MEGA fertile just after birth so yes a pregnancy test would be wise before you call GP
