Stitches

Same went for me! But over time they dissolved.

with my first i had a few in random places. it took 4-5 weeks for them to dissolve

Im at week 4 and a couple days and theyre still there😭

I was starting to wonder the same thing. I’m just so itchy and nothing really relieves it 😭😭😭

I'm 5 weeks pp and still have stitches. I had an appt today and she said they are starting to dissolve so I may see pieces when wiping. If yours are causing discomfort, reach out to your midwife/OB and see if you can get an appt for them to check.

@Jennifer check up are you supposed to go on your 6 weeks of PP or before? But thank you! It just poking me and hurts but I don’t want to touch it or pull on it.

@Jess okay thank you!

@Emilee it’s not itchy but it’s poking me and hurts every time I sit or lay or move. Not sure if that’s normal?

@Emilee twerk that itch out seriously helps like crazy , also if they gave you a bidet go to the bathroom and spray your coo.

@Alana I can’t twerk to save my life 😂😂😂 I do have a peri bottle and it helps when I use it, but as soon as I get up, I’m itching again

@Rachel it depends on if you had a vaginal birth vs c section. C section they see you two to three weeks pp then the normal six weeks

@Emilee loool😭😭 just a little wiggle if you can. I try and do it and walk or even sit in the seat, smh it’s the only relief. Wish we had a cream we could use! The dermoplast spray doesn’t always help with the itch either

@Mikayla I had a vaginal birth. She rip me just a little. But on my paper it says on my 6 weeks to see them?

@Rachel most get checked at 6 weeks. I got checked a little early because of a severe tear (3c). My OB wanted me to see a urogynocologist on top of my regular check ups to make sure I'm healing well.
