After the birth of my twins (one was born vaginally and the second one by csection) my cycles were almost pain-free and short (3 days), VERY different than before having kids. I used to have very painful cycles.
After my hbac, my cycles returned to being VERY painful, but now lasting longer than ever, about 5-6 days. I don't know if it's related to my scar or multiple pregnancies.
Strange thing is I had lots of abdominal soreness following my vbac homebirth. I felt like I birthed her through my belly, very strange. This feeling lasted about 2-3 months. Mostly noticed it when I moved around in bed while lying down or coughing. I'm hoping it was mostly scar adhesions that annoyed me for those few months.
I'm pregnant again and have some concerns about my scar.
What are your experiences like with your cycles following birth?
