23 weeks postnatal but in agony.

I gave birth to my LG 23 weeks ago. 6 weeks postnatal I went to see GP as I had the odd bad pelvic pain. They sent to to Gynecology ward at local hospital for a US scan. All was okay, just put it down to body recovering.

It all settled down other than the odd pain but over the past 3-4 weeks I've had really strong pains in my ovaries. ***TMI*** sex most of the time is absolutely agonsing! And I feel like my cervix is being ripped out. I have booked a GP appt but its mid next month as they are booked up due to post festive rush.

I haven't had a period since giving birth and I haven't been bleeding but I keep having jelly and slimey like discharge with blood in but it is weird as it isn't a period and is coming out consistently.

Anyone have any ideas what this could be or has the same issues! I just want to be out of pain.

Thanks :)

Your body does take a long time to recover. Deffo long than the 6 weeks they lead you to believe. I cant give you advise as i havent experienced what you have but sure the gp will help x

You should give 111 a call and ask for an out of hours appointment. That or I'd call your gp first thing in the morning and ask for an emergency appointment. It's best to get this checked and I hardly ever go gp but after giving birth it's important that you are well so you can take care of your little one x

Could you contact your HV and ask their opinion? Mine phoned up my gp on my behalf and pushed an urgent appointment on them for something.
