UTI or birth stitches not healed?!

Baby is 23 days old, I have no idea how long stitches are supposed to take to heal as Google was vague and the MW didn't mention.

Weeing more (though I am drinking more as have a cough and thirsty due to BFing) but it really stings when I go and then stings after which makes me feel I need to go again IYSWIM.

Worth braving the walk in tomorrow? I have no idea if it's an infection or if it's the stitches

Sounds like UTI, I feel the same today so took a sample to the GP this morning, UTI and have antibiotics. Hope you are feeling better soon.

Thank you and sorry you are down with the same!

It's looking even more likely now as have stomach ache/feeling sick so that may be related?

Well that escalated rather quickly Shock

Ended up in A&E tonight as suddenly got huge stomach pain. Cleared for infection, they reckon it's actually gallbladder or kidney stones!
