Sorry but I moved this from childbirth as I only had one answer in 2 hours.

Yesterday I started to get a pain very similar to what I experienced in labour, I know after pains are common but at 5 months post delivery is a bit much is it not??

I had a normal birth and had an epidural which wore off twice which resulted in me feeling my contractions down one side only.

The pain is around the left side of my back and and down my left leg and feels exactly like my contraction pain, albeit not as bad, if my contraction pain was a 10 (more like 20) on the scale this is like a 5/6. I had after pains for a few days after birth, and during the first time we had sex i felt a similar pain to this but that was 3.5 months ago.

the pain is back now and it started this time yesterday evening too and lasted for a few hours.

Wondering has anyone had anything similar??

Evening. Sorry, OP, but this is not an AIBU thread. We'll move it to Health: please do keep "bumping" it and it'll stay visible in Active Convos - that's the best way to make sure more people see it. Smile
