PP Pain

Rachel • This is the result of having sex.

I understand I should be having some pain 5 days PP. I did just give birth to a child.

However, it seemed like my pelvic pain had gotten better at the hospital and then once I came home it became much much worse. I have a small episiotomy (he put 2 stitches in) and even that isn't bothering me as much as the cramping is.

I thought maybe I'm not hydrating enough, but I'm still sitting at at least 2 liters of water per day (and then some at night).

I almost couldn't sit up in bed to feed just now.

Doctor gave me 5mg of hydrocodone/Tylenol, 600mg of ibuprofen and they are not working. What gives? She said I'd be getting better not way worse.
