   Ive been reading on the net and it looks like this is quite normal, but i wanted to ask in here if anyone else is experiencing the same as me
 sex at 6 weeks felt like i was a virgin again with a very tight burning feeling and then after a little bit of blood.........then the next time the same.  Ive also had very yellow/green thick snot looking discharge. so i have just done a 6 day course of thrush cream but am still getting the same discharge............wondering if the two were related........ and if anyone else has experienced either one or the other or both.......im gonna make an appt to go to doc but if anyone else can shed some light i would be very appreciative
 
 Oh and to add this is number 3 csection and this is the first time this has happened

   I had a similar experience to this with the pain and suspected thrush infection.  Tried treating it with thrush cream but no improvement.  So I bit the bullet and went to the doctor and turns out I had a bacterial infection.  A course of antibiotics and everything was normal again.

   yip same here, second section and first time it's been painful. Sounds like you have bacterical vaginanitis (sp?), antibotics and cream will treat it.
 it does go away, best to see the doc as soon as you can. good luck!
 it's awful isn't it   |

   Oh you poor thing! I had uber pain at about 6ish weeks after the fact, but no nasty infections. Hubby did comment that it felt different - wether it was the lack of sex or something else I dont know! Hope you get it sorted :)

   Haha, love the shut up shop comment....
 Would love to advise you on this but considering we have not even gone there yet....which is pretty sad considering it has been almost 9 weeks hahahahaha!
 
 Good luck at Drs.
