F/U to the ugh hemorrhoids post. TMI

jilicious

Yay! I made a very analytical inspection of my little rosebud and it turns out... NO hemorrhoids, but just some laceration-like marks on my now-stretched-beyond-reason perineum.

So while it's not latent rhoids from a vaginal delivery, I think it IS related to it because there's more folds of skin/stretched out skin on my poor little taint, which is more prone to um, wiping injury.

It's funny because when you start feeling like normal you think you LOOK like normal down there. Until you take a flashlight and a mirror to the area, and then you're mind is blown.

ETA: I think I need to remove this big, giant photo of myself because I read this post and all I see is my face and "perineum"

It sounds like you may have anal fissures. A friend of mine has had them pretty bad since she delivered. Her baby is 9-10 months old now. If they don't start healing you can get a cream for them.

I hate how everything changes. You never go back to the same as before.
