Did yours go away after birth?

Did vaginal birth make it worse?

With pregnancy no. 3 I had loads- on my vulva, down my thighs, hideous. I was horrified. I don't know how the birth affected them but they went away soon afterwards. I certainly don't have any now ( dc3 is 5 btw).

Hercule, if you don't mind me asking - how old were you when you had DC3?

Whoops sorry I've been away.

First child I was 30, pregnancy wonderful no problems at all. Birth horrendous baby was huge and backwards.

Second baby I was 33, got SPD in the pregnancy and could hardly walk- but no varicose veins.

Third baby I was 36- SPD not so bad but between my legs felt like a 3D map of the Quantocks.
