I just came across this thread, I just had my first bub by c-sec on 07/07 and I ended up with about 6 of the buggers all along my bottom lip!!!

But saying that, I am prone to coldsores.. so it didnt surprise me. My body was under a lot of stress, I was tired and dehydrated and very dry lips.

The worst part was not only that I couldnt kiss bub, but also that the hospy wanted me to wear a mask when I fed or held, so basically most of the time!
