I had some that felt like af cramping but not too bad, and only when feeding. they went away in about a week, and i used panadine to relieve them.

the feeling of stitches might just be scar tissue trying to stretch. sometimes a scar will pull a it, but don't stress the high blood flow down there means that scar tissue will often dissapear completely.

One thing I do have is when I go to the loo, (only sometimes) my body naturally pushes down a little and I feel very bruised in my pelvic floor. I'm trying to just do heaps of pelvic floor exercises to help.
