Hi all,
just a disclaimer before I start: I have gone to my GP about my issues and I am awaiting ultrasounds etc. I do also suffer with health anxiety which is also being dealt with.
I am 10 weeks postpartum today and had a normal vaginal delivery. I bled for around 4 weeks after birth and believe I had a light period for 4 days just under 4 weeks ago. However since then I have been noticing that I have been getting pelvic pain. Most of the time it just feels like period cramping, nothing too extreme but noticeable, and then sometimes I can just feel it on either the left or ride lower side. I also had some bleeding after sex around 2 weeks ago but no pain during. I am booked in for an ultrasound which has been expedited due to my anxiety over it being either ovarian or cervical cancer. However I can’t have my smear until after 12 weeks postpartum as my GP explained I am more likely to have a false positive test result before then.
I suppose I’m here to hear about anyone else’s similar experiences that wasn’t something so drastic as to what I am thinking? Has anyone else experienced this at all? Thanks in advance!
