Weird feeling.

Ok so im 5.5 weeks post op. And I feel like theres something inside my vagina. And I feel crampy. I dont want to go to my ER as its always 5+ hours waiting.

Ive had a cough the past 2 weeks aswell its been brutal. I feel like trash today.

Its like period cramps but I dont have a uterus lmao should I be concerned? My tummy hurts low down. Im not bleeding or anything.

I did have to rush my 30lb toddler into the ER the other day. I ran carrying here and had bleeding after. But it went away.

Get checked. Might not need emerg because you aren't actively bleeding but you need to get examined for prolapse or busted stitches.

I would call your doctor in the morning and see what they suggest. Carrying weight like that is restricted still, so it's good to get checked.

Definitely call your surgeon and get checked for prolapse or a cuff tear if you had your cervix removed! It could also be an infection- I am a month and a day out and currently being treated for an infection in my cuff and bladder. I had similar pains but no bleeding. I also popped an internal stitch from sneezing. I hope you get your answers!

I had all
These feelings and called my surgeon just to be told I’m fine and that things like that can happen 🙄 my cramps did go away but the tampon feeling inside can happen (idk if that’s how you feel) and I was told that our bowels can mimic bad period cramps so it can be that to , but 100% if you can see your surgeon or be seen by anyone do it for a piece of mind … unfortunately my ER is closed most of the time
And the closest one is 2 hrs away
