Oo, totoo yan! Maraming nanay ang nakakaranas ng pain down there sa unang linggo or two, especially pag umuupo, naglalakad, or yan na yung worst, pag nakahiga tapos biglang gumagalaw ka. Parang pressure or heaviness ang nararamdaman nila, kaya ang dami na nag-adjust ng posisyon habang tulog (side-lying with pillow support ang life saver).
Pero importante rin na tiningnan niya kung gaano kalaki ang sakit at kung kailan nagsimula. Kung improving gradually siya from day 1 to day 7 to week 2, that's normal healing. Kung nag-worsen or nag-plateau ng matagal, or may bleeding pa din, worth checking with her OB para ma-rule out kung may tear or infection.
Pag medyo nag-settle na ang initial pain, marami rin na nag-try ng warm compress or sitting on soft pillows lang, at some found relief dun. Pero definitely, best to confirm with her doctor kung ano exactly ang cause so she knows kung safe na mag-walk around more or need ng rest pa.
Hope she feels better soon! Recovery is really individual, pero hindi siya nag-iisa sa experience na ito.
