Postpartum pain?

Question

So I'm 9 days postpartum and I've noticed the past couple of days that my clit and the area around it has been super sore. It hurts to sit. Everything else seems to be healing fine, except for that. Is that normal or something I should go to my doctor about?

Answer

I'm 3 weeks postpartum and I noticed that as well. It's still a bit sensitive at times, but much better the past week or so. I read online that it could be from the catheter if you had one, which I did, but more likely just simply from pushing and straining. I plan to mention it to my OB at my 4 week appointment if it's still happening.
