I just delivered 4 days ago and I didnt have a bowel movement until yesterday. It was a BIG bowel movement (TMI) after i went, the toliet had ALOT of blood in it. Now my st_tches are VERY painful, the only thing I am using for the pain is dermaplast, and taking prescription motrin, what else can I do? When I pee it burns, is that normal? Do you think I might have ripped out a st_tch or something when I had a bowel movement? I'm just worried about my bottom! HELP!

I doubt that you ripped the stiches, but are probably suffering from hemorrhoids and general irritation of the area. Try some Tucks pads or even wipe with the Preparation H medicated wipes. If you feel sore in hind area, suppositories are a blessing as well. Don't forget to take stool softners for awhile! If it burns when you pee you may have a UTI. If you had a cathedar in during labor and delivery, you are very likely suffering from a UTI. I believe 95% of patients with cathedars suffer from UTI's afterwards. (Sorry, nursing major). If you are still in doubt, give your dr. a call. Hope you feel better! And congrats on the baby!!!!

Try using a mild laxative, so your stool will be soft. I was scared to go after my first because of st_tches so I took a natural laxative and that helped a bunch. Also, do you have a sitz-bath? As for burning when you pee, you may have gotten a skid on you v____al area. I did with my second and it made peeing hurt soooooo bad.
