embarassing problem

As I mentioned in my last post, I got my 1st period after giving birth on Thur which is fine but..................I have always used Tampons, so I thought nothing of it, and bought a pack but I cant use them!! Its like Im a born again Virgin!!!! It was soooooooooooooooooo painful!!

I was just wondering if anyone else has had this problem and if so what did they do and how long did it last!!!

Thanx guys

Hi there

i've never used tampons but after giving birth last year it seems that sex was worse as i was so tight and so painfull, almost a year on and still the same. ur right when u say is like beeing virgin again. hopefully will pass....

ekkkk sounds painful... im no help with that as u know i havent had my period yet? lol but you had a c-section so why is it painful to use a tampon, it shouldnt be?

I know, I could understand it if I had a C-sec but I didnt!!! Im guessing coz it hasnt had a lot of action for a while, its a bit dry?! I hate using towels, feels so un-clean!!!
