Keep going with it. I was the same as I was still badly bruised.
I started noticing a difference after about 6-8 weeks, once my stitches were healed and the bruising had gone down.
Now at 20 weeks everything feels back to normal.

Just keep up with the pf excersises and don't ever strain on the loo!! If there is a weakness already there it can cause prolapse, and then that's a problem for life (I'm speaking from experience unfortunately) get lactulose from docs and pleanty of water x

As others have said, just keep trying! I found them very difficult but kept it up and now things feel totally normal (10 weeks on)
