Help... Tampons Postpartum

So I am 12 weeks postpartum and pulling out tampons are hell!!😩 can anyone relate? I have been cleared by my OB and healed well so I dont understand why its so uncomfortable.. I havent had sex yet and after this I couldnt imagine having it anytime soon... when do you feel completely normal again down there??

Obstetricians aren't specifically trained in the pelvic floor. You may have issues that have gone unnoticed.

I am 9 weeks post partum and haven't had my period yet... just make sure they are plenty "saturated" before pulling out.. don't pull out a dry one as that hurts like a bi-otch!!

i started using a menstrual cup after my first kid because i cant stand pads and tampons hurt now, i think its because everything healed back way tighter then it was before. i dont have any pointers but if you would be open to a menstrual cup i love my lilly cup i forget im wearing it

I don't have that problem but my body pushes them out so I can't even use them. I don't get it.
