I really hope I'm worried about nothing here, but I have felt for the last week that something about my postpartum recovery has been off. I had my baby 2 weeks ago, and I started having a really sore abdomen about a week ago. It felt muscular, but I was still weirded out by it. My bleeding has been much heavier than with my two previous births, and though it has slowed down, I'm still getting gushes of bright red blood, which is unusual for me. Then I started feeling like there was something in my vagina, and just told myself it was my vaginal tissues being swollen, or clots passing, etc. Well, today in the shower I felt inside my vagina, and something is there that I don't think should be. I looked with a mirror, and there is definately tissue there that looks like part of an organ. It is totally covering my vaginal opening. My midwife is on her way over to look, and I just hope this is something simple, because we don't have insurance, and just paid for a new furnace. We don't have money for a hospital visit! I really hope I'm getting ahead of myself here, but I have a not so good feeling about it. Please send me some good vibes!

The good news is that after the one adjustment, the tissues of my vagina and my urethra are "retreating" a bit. It will be nice to get them back where they belong! I'm just not looking forward to having to take it easy again, which is pretty hard to do with three kids.
