Still some soreness and pain?
I’m 6 weeks postpartum tomorrow after having my second baby. My perineum (I think that the correct term) still feels tender at times. I tore a tiny bit that required one or two stitches (I tore worse my first pregnancy). It’s not like constantly sore, but if I touch at all (like washing in the shower or wiping myself) it feels tender. Should it still be tender after 6 weeks?
Also, I have been having this little twinge of pain in the lower part my left side of my abdomen. Only in one specific spot and it twinges a few times here and there and then is gone again for a bit. Any ideas on that?
My check up isn’t until early next week and I’ll definitely ask then... but I was curious if anyone else experienced any of this since I didn’t with my first.
