birth of Joshua Alexander - and post birth issue ...

Thanks for the update, glad to hear you have had the surgery, but sorry to hear that it all isn't over yet.

Like Starangel I also think you are handling this very bravely.

Hope your little man is giving you lots of smiles and cheeky moments.

seeing the surgeon tomorrow ... wish me luck!

Belated Good Luck!! How did you get on?

Only just saw this also.

Hope it all went OK for you and that you got some good news.

Yeah - looking forward to the update peanutter :crossfingers: for good news!

it was good news, and a big answer to prayer :pray:

I've healed quite a lot - there was a bunch of granular tissue and a weird little pocket which he cauterised away, but the surgeon thinks it will heal further.

And in the short term, he said that swimming, all exercise, all foods, and *SEX* are all back on the menu!

I again asked a bunch of questions, and the surgeon answered them all calmly and completely, making sure I understood things.

So yeah, a huge answer to prayer ... thanks for the follow up, ladies

Brilliant news! That's great to hear

:hooray: :hooray:
All those prayers for your vagina did not go unanswered!!
Wonderful news peanutter, here's to eating, swimming, exercise and sex!

Peanutter I am THRILLED for you. Wonderful news!

Fantastic, so glad to hear that you came away feeling positive.

yes, thanks!!

still pretty sore, TBH, but so glad that there's *finally* some positive news ... not sure what the next step will be, but at least we're in the endgame, I think ...

Oh peanutter!! I am soooo happy for you!!!
I have been thinking of you often and praying everything has been healing well!!
Its so good to hear the great news!

Good to see you're able to re-engage in everything you've been missing! YAY!!!!

thanks, ladies :D

Wow Nutter, thanks for sharing. I must admit you write so well that I did chuckle over the terms you used in the first post - but not at you, just the way you put things was amazingly generous! I am so pleased you healed so well and relatively quickly. Good luck for your next TTC journey! Your birth story certainly puts it all in perspective. But don't tell it to people who have yet to bring a perfect bundle into the world!

Wow! Waht an amazing story and you are an amazing lady! :hug:
Your positive attitude is definitely to be commended.
I am so glad to read that things are healing well and the surgeon is happy.
Thank you so much for sharing.

Wow! What an epic story! Congratulations on your (eventual!) birth! Hoping everything rights itself down there without too much intervention xx

Thank you so much for sharing. Sorry to hear of your post birth issues but happy to hear Joshua arrived safe & well.
