Question regarding post birth anatomy?
Please forgive the too much info but: I am 3months post birth and I have had a lot of problems with a bad episiotomy stitching job and as such have been unable to be d at all. Anyhow things are finally starting to return to normal down there, however I can feel my cervix about an inch inside me, this seems very wrong it should be way further up. Ours was a complicated birth, bubs head was facing the wrong way and tilted back, so she got stuck in my pelvis. When I got an overwhelming urge to push, the midwife performed an internal and as bubs head was swollen, she was unableto feel my cervix and mistakenly gave me the go ahead. It was later discovered I was only 7cm dilated and I had to be given an epidural to try and stop the pushing, this helped but didn't completely stop it. So there were at least 2 hours or more where I was pushing when I shouldn't have been and I am wondering if anyone can tell me if this would be the reason for my cervix being down so low or is there another reason and should I be super concerned. I've heard of prolapses but don't really know if that could be what this is. I am not due to go back to the dr for almost 2 weeks and I'm not sure if this is more urgent or if it can wait or what. Is this normal after giving birth or does anyone have any idea what this is??? Any advice or information is greatly appreciated
