TMI

But, has anyone had harder recovery in their bum area than their vaginal region. I’ve had the worst time. It feels like I gave birth out of my butt instead. 🥴I’m 7weeks postpartum and still have trouble getting it to heal. I’ll get it feeling better and then one bad bathroom visit it starts all over again. Ughhh Any remedies helping you? if so.

Same!! Drinks lots and lots of water

lol right!! I think we didn’t do pushing correct way then? Idk but just trying to relax pelvic muscles when going to the bathroom. I’m only 4 weeks pp but I bet when I see my pelvic floor physiotherapist- she will be able to give me some tips on how to recover quicker there. I also have second degree tear and I think it’s just muscles there that are trying to recover and a torn muscle takes time to heal and then even more time to become elastic and “normal” again

I’m not sure because my doctor and nurses were telling me to push like you are going to the bathroom. That was the only way to get him out lol I have a one degree year but that area is fine now. I drink plenty of fluids, that’s the problem I’m going to the bathroom too much lol I’m not constipated or anything.

Well I shouldn’t say too much. But, normally.

Have you tried stool softener’s? Or gentle laxative? Could be that your poop is super solid which is causing irritation.
