Ouch - I had one after I had Eden, and they're not nice! A huge one! Also had a smaller one before giving birth, but it never really bothered me, and if it did, I just rubbed some cream into it - one I got from the chemist, can't remember what it was called, but was safe to take in pregnancy.

If you are too embarrassed to go to your chemist - send your DH - thats what I did.. LOL
