Why does it hurt so much more now?

I never used to have period pain/cramps before having a baby, but since AF has returned post birth I have been having the most unbearable cramping.

Sorry for TMI but it kind of aches really really low down.

Why is this?

?? I dunno.

BUT I'm 100% sure I've had more of this POST babies than I did Pre babies.

Yep me too! I never got cramping and now its terrible! Oh and it hurts reall BAD in my c/s scar..

Not sure why though??

Not sure hun...hope it gets better for you soon. :hug:
Hopefully someone will have some answers for you.

I'm the opposite!!! Before having DD I used to get reasonably bad menstrual cramping (panadol usually would help or heat pack) but now hardly any!!! Mind you, I've only had one AF since having DD.... I think the next one is due soon as I have those same feelings as a month ago :rolleyes:

Aww Ali i have no advice, i agree with most of you though.. ever since AF has returned - when i get my period i actually feel like im in labour again!! its the only way i can describe the pain!!

:hug::hug:

Same here. Mine are so bad that I'm getting a Mirena put it to try and help it. Don't know why it happens but it just sucks, doesn't it!!

Yep,

My first few AF's after DD were ROTTEN. Felt like I was a teenager again.

Oh no, not looking forward to this!!

I was informed by the midwife that pregnancy can alter your cycle, flow and how much you cramp with af. I was stoked when the first few periods I had (pre implanon) were painfree and light after suffering crippling, heavy periods for years prior to pregnancy
