   After my c/s I would get a strange pain whenever I had a wee, after a few weeks though it stopped but now it is back. It also hurts when going from sitting to standing, standing to sitting or walking around. I say hurt but it is more uncomfortable than painful. I just wondered if anyone else has experienced anything like this. I have recently stopped breastfeeding and wondered if perhaps it could just be things getting ready for AF?
 DH keeps telling me that the surgeon left his watch in there   |

   I've had loads of UTI's before and this isn't the same, but may take some citravescence just to be sure.   |

   Hope it takes it away. if not talk to your dr or ring healthline they might be able to shed some light on it.

   I know exactly what you mean cuppatea, I get it too and 14 month later it still pops up every now and then, can't put it down to just AF as I get it at funny times of the month (all over the place), never thought to talk to GP as like you said, it didn't "hurt".
 It's kinda like a need to pee, but can't and having to hold it in but only just kinda feeling

   I had this again on Saturday and have just looked at this to see the date that I last got it and it was pretty much exactly 4 weeks (3 weeks and 6 days), this time it happened exactly 2 weeks after AF turned up, and the last time would also have then been 2 weeks before AF turned up. Could it be ovulation pain? I never felt ovulation before but perhaps the whole process of pregnancy/birth/hormone etc has make ovulation more noticable, or perhaps its just coincidence?

   I was told that it could be the scar tissue from the CS making things that move around/change normally more noticable.
 Might pay to visit the GP just to check everything is as it should be?

   I haven't had a c section, but I have had abdo surgery and I have some wicked scar tissue in there and does like to move around and hurt like hell some days. Not a lot that can be done for it if it is the scar tissue sorry, I get that pain all the time. |

   Ok it has happened again so I'm thinking I should probably go to the doctor, it actually hurts quite a lot this time and is very painful when I first sit down and I have low backache too (which might be unrelated as we have been at show day and done a lot of walking).
 Trouble is I have a male doctor and the last 2 times I have seen him have been to get my boobs out and now it will be my lady bits. He might start thinking i'm some kind of weirdo   |

   Go ahead and get things checked out. That shouldn't be happening. I've recently begun investigating endo, I know something is wrong inside but I don't know what and I am determined to get answers (and no pain!).

   Yeah its weird cos I don't even know how I will explain what it feels like, I'm just worried that he will dismiss it as everything calming down after the birth, but it didn't start happening until 2 weeks before AF came back and I've only had 2 since he was born, and the weird pain thing is getting worse each time not better. 
 I will definately go.   |

   lately i've been getting these pains too, like stretching pains at the start of pregnancy.  i think perhaps my endo is back but i'm not sure.....it seems to subside with the help of a hottie bottle but i think i'll get it checked anyway......
 cuppatea....what did you decide?

   That I will go to the doctor.....just haven't decided when.
 I've never had Endo so i'm not sure what that would feel like. I looked some stuff up on an American board yesterday which seems to indicate ovulation pain, which is what I was thinking as it happens exactly mid cycle and is all the same symptons as what they were describing. Is better today but not gone completely, yesterday it got to the point where I could barely walk.

   The best website I found on endo is www.nzendo.co.nz also there is a book in our local library on endo in NZ which is absolutely fantastic. The difficult thing in endo diagnosis from what I can see is that it can turn up nearly anywhere so the symptoms all vary! I'm getting mid-cycle cramps/bloated/soreness as well. I hate it!

   Yeah have been online looking up stuff today and have just made myself more confused...lol, I think the only thing it doesn't look like is cysts, could be endo or it could just be bad ovulation pain. Found some ladies on an american forum talking about ov pain after having children and they described exactly the same symptons....but some of the medical sites say that it shouldn't be that painful etc. I'm gonna make an appointment to see the GP on Monday so will keep you all informed.
 Oh and just for a laugh I did an online diagnosis thing and this is what is said I might have (some stuff is to do with me not sleeping and my headaches)
