hey i just read you said it smelt id say its an infection mine was exactly the same. after a few days of antibiotics it was fine. go get it checked.

i'm asking my midwife about it tomorro when she comes, i knew it was an infection

im just praying they wont have to do anything with my stitches!

trashit · Mar 13th, 2010, 04:46 AM

fucking stitches have burst open so no wonder it stinks! the holes open!

ffs.......................

Same thing that happened to me hun

luckaly I didn't get an infection! I seriously thought I would!

I dont know wether Its a coincidence or not.... but pretty much everyone I know that had an infection had salt baths and all that.... but I did nothing (I have a shower so thats all I used... no salt baths, lavander oil etc just plain old water!) and a escaped with no infection :shrugs:
I didn't dare do anything down there apart from that Instillagel stuff - srsly ITS AMAZING! GET SOME PRESCRIBED!!

I'm practically fully healed now

! Which I consider the greatest compensation following the birth I had

Hope your feeling better soon! Honestly though, codine and instillagel is the way to go!

Eww, I'm SO glad I didn't need stitches! Good luck getting them tidied up!

trashit · Mar 13th, 2010, 05:41 AM

did they stitch you back up or just leave it to close in? ive been having salt baths, and lavender baths. I cant stop having them, im so paranoid about the horrible smell! I knew there was something up with it, i said to my mum "its like how your ears smell when you have tunnels" x

trashit · Mar 13th, 2010, 07:44 AM

she said it'll close in by itself ive just gotta carry on having the salt baths. i smell though!!!!

I'm sorry your stitches came open.

But don't worry about the smell... No one else but you can smell it unless they stick their head down there!

Love Bunny · Mar 14th, 2010, 18:27 PM

unfortunatly they just leave it

its just incase its infected and if they stitch it up the infection will be trapped inside and make it a hell of alot worse!!! it gets better hun

i cried and cried for 2 weeks then on the 4th week it was 100x better xxxx
