Just over a week out. No landscaping for a while I think. Yes, still contractions when pumping especially but the random contractions stopped after 3-4 days. I'm still a bit sore and I think I'm still swollen but I'm not looking. It just still feels different and a bit achy but not bad at all. I felt significantly better on day 5 but I think it'll be another week until I'm feeling almost normal.
Overall, much less pain then I expected.

2. Hell to the no. I got shaved by my nurse, does that count?
3. I had them for quite awhile and I was on Pitocin through my 2nd day PP. I still have a random one here or there, but it just feels like a mild AF cramp.

1. how many days post partum are you, and are you still sore/swollen down there? (if you had a vag delivery) 2 days had a c-section
2. has anyone made the plunge to do any landscaping? no and prob won't for awhile... not like that area is getting any action for a little while!
3. uterine contractions: are you still having them? and are yours painful? yes and they make my c-section incision painful... they are most pronounced with breastfeeding
1. I had my sweet girl on Wednesday night, so about 3 days. I had a vag delivery and still sore/swollen. But, I'm taking some pretty amazing pain killers and it's helped knock out the pain.
2. I have not even THOUGHT about doing anything down there with a razor. I've got stiches and don't want to mess anything up down there more than it already is. lol
3. I have them the worst when I'm nursing. Other than that, I don't have them much at all...but heck yea, they are painful!!!
16 days and still puffy and very bruised feeling up front. I did shave and am regretting it. I feel like I have diaper rash now from the constant pads. I don't feel ctx anymore, but I do sometimes get a gush while bfing.
1. how many days post partum are you, and are you still sore/swollen down there? (if you had a vag delivery) i am 14 days pp and i am just fine. i was sore/swollen for about 3 days. my ankles were swollen longer than my lady bits!
2. has anyone made the plunge to do any landscaping? no, i am not worried about it for now. after awhile but before dh and i just back in to the swing of things, i will fix it down there.
3. uterine contractions: are you still having them? and are yours painful?
i have felt fine and no pain medication (tylenol or motirn) since about day 4 post partum. i bounce back pretty quickly... i am pumping and bottle feeding my breastmilk so every now and then I get crampy when I pump. other than that... nothing.
i wish i had not bounced back so quickly and let dh spoil me a little more. but with the baby in the NICU for the first 9-10 days... my pampering started when he came home. lol

6 days PP and things are fine might still be a bit swollen I stopped with the peri bottle 3 days ago
Hell no I haven't even shaved my legs yet
the after birth pains were AWFUL AWFUL AWFUL for 2 days. During some I shaking and freezing even 800mg advil wasn't helping. They got better day by day and now I don't really have any. MW said they get worse with each baby and she was right.

For all 3
1. 14 days PP and haven't been swollen for at last a week or more. I had an episiotomy. I was bruised for a bit too but that went away. Lately I've just felt a lot of pressure which is a bit uncomfortable.
2. Just landscaped yesterday.
3. Only rarely. I had them for a few days but I wasn't able to breastfeed after that and they stopped.

1. how many days post partum are you, and are you still sore/swollen down there? had a c-section so no swelling
2. has anyone made the plunge to do any landscaping? Yes. I feel cleaner with PP bleeding if I tidy things up a bit, lol.
3. uterine contractions: are you still having them? and are yours painful? I am almost 2 weeks out and I still have contractions when I nurse. Had zero bleeding 2 days ago and then started gushing during nursing again yesterday from the contractions. Fun!
Re: outside baby mommas: lady bits
1. 1 day, and definitely a little sore and swollen still
2. Not at all - I haven't even showered yet...
3. Only when we try nursing and they are very mild

1. 15 days post partum. No longer swollen from the 2.5 hours of pushing before my c-section.
2. I have done some landscaping down there, however it's a bit hard cause the steri-strips from my c-section are getting in the way.
3. Uterine contractions I think have come to a stop, but some of them were very uncomfortable, not painful.
from my first:
1. was swollen for several days if not a week.
2. I did not do any sort of "landscaping" for a few weeks PP!!
3. Had ute contrax during BFing for a couple weeks after. There was one night that they were really bad and I had to take a Motrin in order to sleep.

1- 1 week and 1 day- no more swelling
2- no landscaping yet
3- still have light contractions when breast feeding.
1- 10 days PP, I had a c-section but was still puffy down there from the 28 hours of labor before and surgery until about 5 days PP.
2- I still have steri-strips so not really, but I have shaved my legs since the only thing comfortable to wear is dresses right now.
3- I have not had any contractions since labor even when breastfeeding. I am on motrin from the surgery so maybe I am just not feeling them?
