After the birth of my DD I had very painful after pains / contractions especially when trying to breast feed.They were so painful at times I could hardly move. The doctors & midwifes gave me panadol to ease the pain - but it definately did not help. These intense pains lasted about 2 days. ( I was induced with prostin gel and had a long 16 hour labour & suffered a PPH - did this have anything to do with this after pain / contractions? )

Has anyone else had a similar experience or have any suggestions on how to manage this after pain / contractions for my next birth.

Thanks Sarah
