Just a random question - when do these dissolve?? I thought they would be well and truly gone by now but had two come out this morning. Now I'm wondering whether there's more still there... ------------- http://lilypie.com">  http://lilypie.com">

Lol, I got pissy with mine catching on my pants (c-section stitches) so the midwife trimmed them at my 6 week check, I think the last of them finally dissolved around the 7 weeks mark. ------------- http://www.babysfirstsite.com">

My outer ones desolved in about 8days? The inside ones fell out after about 2 weeks I think. (vaginal birth) -------------

I had a vaginal birth too and thought they wouldn't be there anymore. Maybe I'll mention it to the MW when I see her.
Thanks  ------------- http://lilypie.com"> http://lilypie.com">

Some of my outer ones fell out after 2 weeks, but I'm pretty sure the rest are still there and it's been over a month! 
Edit: And when I say outer, I mean outer-outer! I had a pretty big/enormous tear... |
