Bumuka tahi ko (Normal Delivery)

Aw, mommy, kaya mo yan! One of my mum friends din bumuka ang tahi niya around week 2, at sinabi ng OB niya na normal pa rin yan kasi ang healing process ay gradual talaga, ang tahi mismo ay nagsara ulit on its own, hindi na kailangan i-stitch ulit. Ang importante talaga ay malinis at dry palagi ang area, so perineal wash with warm water lang after you pee, then pat dry carefully, wag kuskusin. A few of us swear by changing pads frequently and avoiding heavy lifting or standing too long, kasi yan ang biggest culprit ng pagbubukas ulit ng tahi. Siguro within the next week or two babalik na siya, pero definitely go back to your OB if makita mo na may nana, sobrang sakit na hindi tolerable, or if it gets more swollen and red, better safe than sorry. Hugs, mommy, you're doing great!
