Sorry i know a little off topic but you mentioned the afterpains eeeeek!! I know after #2 my pains were pretty full on but i was to brave to ask for anything, so what can be offered in regards to pain relief? I'm not talking serious stuff but does some of the stronger paracetamols work etc?
I'm allergic to Codeine so I can't comment on any meds with codeine in them but I took panadol & ponstan after having Lucinda. The afterpains were horrible and would have me close to tears at times. I needed to make sure I timed the meds so that they'd have kicked in before feeds.
