Call 111 and fight to get seen asap by Dr.It's very important that you get treated straight away.Or go to A+E for you and your baby's sake.

If you can’t get through to your GP or Midwife call either the anti natal clinic or ward at whichever hospital you are under.

Thank you for your reply .I call antenatal but they said to call GP or Midwife.

It might only be a vaginal wall prolapse. I had this when I was carrying my third baby and this was many years ago when I was 25 years old. I lived with the prolapse until about 4 years ago when I had the repair done aged 68 years. I'm 72 this month and all been ok so far, so try not to worry but get an appointment just to check.

Can I respectfully ask you how you where after your repair ? I am down to have one and am very nervous. I am 68 and have had vaginal prolapse for 18 months. I am a joint carer for twin disabled grandchildren and don’t want to be out of action for weeks. Thankyou

Hi Teddy3. I recovered very quick, but you must rest and not lift for at least 6 weeks. I was doing general housework after about 2 weeks but that was only washing up cooking etc and light cleaning. Not hoovering but I also had my bladder placed where it had dropped and I must say my bladder has moved again but my prolapse repair has been fine. Please do not worry, I didn't find the operation very painful, I was quite surprised at what little discomfort I had. I hope this helps you. I understand your situation of being a joint carer which is hard work but please do not over do it as you could put yourself back to square one. Talk to your surgeon he/she will say when you can be back in action. Good luck

Thank you for your reply .Did you had any problem durring the delivery ?

[Nothingimpossible in reply to Valen82]

Hi Valen82. No I didn't have any problems during birth. A few stitches but a normal delivery. Prolapse remained the same .I never had any problems until my later years of 68 years where I got a drawing sensation and uni's. Then had the op. By the way sometimes they won't do repair work on a prolapse after birth because muscles are weak and need to go back in place. xx

I had a prolapse from 3 months. The midwife team wasn't interested as they seemed only interested in the baby , they said it wouldn't affect labour. I pushed hard in labour and still have it 6 years on, now diagnosed. I wish I'd had it properly diagnosed at the time and it had been discussed and considered as part of the birth plan. I'd suggest insisting on seeing gynecologist

[Valen82 in reply to Sunnysidoop]

I am trying to get an appoiment to be seen by a Dr but is just so difficult .
