oh,

can any1 tell me when we can start using tampons again, i think i remember the midwife saying not to until after 6weeks, should i wait until my next period, or just go for it, i know all my stitches are gone n not painful anymore but i dont wana get a infection,

thanks for any help ladies

Mine came at 9 weeks but I waited for my next one before I used tampons. Youll probablybe fine after 6 weeks but because I had heavy bleeding after Drake for 6 weeks I didn't want to take a chance.

I'm using them and it's my first period, Cahal is 19 weeks old though so figured that was long enough by far!

 

[isobel84]
