    Awww Cricket hun I am hearing you on the sore butt. Sure does sound like piles (only coz I can't spell the H word) to me. What makes it more painful is that it has come to the outside. Now I know this is grose and some might idsagree with me, but I found when my butt was hugely sore I would just pop it back in. Like if I was in the shower and washing myself and I could feel it I would gently just push it back inside. The relief was instant.

    Hey when your bum is that sore you'll do almost anything right !!

    No worries Trish - doesn't gross me out! (maybe it should, but your perspective on gross changes a little I think, after having kids! ) Anyways, I've tried a couple of times to put things back where they belong, and it feels better for a minute, and then slips back out again. I talked to my midwife though this afternoon, and she recommended a different cream (proctofoam?) so we'll see how that goes. She said it's supposed to be a much better product. Here's hoping!

    Hey Cricket

    it sounds like you might have an anal fissure...which is not all that uncomon with subsequent births...the cream your m/w suggested sounds similar to what most Drs would recommend

    lots of fluids

    wishing you lots of relaxing moments and wonderful sleep
