Hey everyone,
I’m hoping to hear from anyone who has experienced vaginal packing (a “pack”) after birth.
I had my baby 10 months ago, and a lot happened during and after the delivery. Overall it was traumatic, but the part that still stays with me the most is the PACK.
Whenever I’ve tried to talk about it, people don’t seem to know what I’m referring to, which has felt quite isolating. I found the experience incredibly hard, especially when it was removed. It was extremely painful, even with gas and air.
For some reason, this is the part I’ve struggled to fully process, even months later.
I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who’s been through something similar. How it felt for you, whether it stayed with you, and if things softened over time.
Thank you so much
