I noticed that not alot of people don't know this but, after you have a vaginal delivery, get yourself some witch hazel, cool in the fridge, and cool a recieving blanket in the fridge, pour some witch hazel on the recieving blanket and use as a compress on your vagina. It feels sooooo good, and takes all that burning aching pain away. The hospital I gave birth to my son in handed out frozen pads, with witch hazel wet naps for this purpose. Also, it will help your stiches to heal faster, and lower the chance of infection. TRUST ME, this is the cure, and you will be glad you tried it. Just thought I would share that with you.
Also, just to put a question in, we are TTC and I am just about to start my ovulation period, so, do you think this month will be the month? Wish me luck!!!!!

I can definately vouch for the Witch Hazel.... that stuff was a lifesaver! I also have a bidet in my home so that made it really easy to get a nice warm bath below the belt ;)
I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you!! Good luck!

I wish I had known that with my first, I had a 3rd degree epi and I thought I would die for a month after that! lol
This could very well be your month, remember to put a pillow under your hips after intercourse to help it along. Good luck!
