Lilmisspositive,

A MASSIVE CONGRATULATIONS ON THE BIRTH OF YOUR LITTLE ONE!!!!!

I agree with the previous posters. Panadol just wont cut it!

I was on a morphine drip for 24 hours after DD's birth. Then I graduated to panadeine forte and voltaren.

They told me to stick with the voltaren when I went home. Sorry, I cant remember what I took after discharge - it was sooo long ago!

If you are looking for something over the counter, try panadeine extra (paracetamol with codeine - but not as much as the forte). Even panadeine is stronger than panadol. For me, panadol doesnt touch the sides even when it comes to headaches or period pain.

Good luck - and enjoy your babymoon
