Hello XXXXXXX
3 months bck delivered a baby girl

Ok
when i consulted my doc she told it is healed
Ok
but i still feel tat the skin is not covered properly
wld it cover naturally as and when tym passes by
Ok, May I know when you tore stitches ?
after 5 days
from day one it was painfull
That means after 5 days of delivery?
Still do you have pain?
no pain
but discomfort is there
Ok
Generally it will take 3-4 weeks time to heal completely
its been 3 months now
doc says its healed
but i feel external skin around the openi g
still needs to b covered
But some discomfort will be there while sexual intercourse and during bowel movement
ya
bowel movement yes
Since you doctor examined you clinically and told that it is healed then nothing to worry
Ok
not yet bck to sex life
Ok
oh ok
but can i expect it to return 2 normalcy
If you heavy work like lifting weights can also cause it
no i do not
I suggest you take warm to hot water in a tub and sit in for 15 minutes
oh ok
my husband told he can still see stiches
Ok
Have you noticed any redness and discharge from wound site?
no
i got my chums couple of days bck
Then nothing to worry, only thing you need to do maintain hygiene to prevent infection
oh ok
thanks
and one more thing
Do you have any more queries?
Ok sure
please proceed
this is wit regard to my daughter
Ok
she did not go for motions from couple of days
Ok
is this normal
Is baby active/
?
how many days is ok like tat
ya she is active
It is normal in babies
ok
Some babies will not go for more than 2 weeks
oh oh
is it ok
It is ok until baby is active
Are you giving breast feeding?
yes
Ok good, just continue exclusive breast feeding
nothing to worry
my mom in law feeds her on lactogen
and ragi porridge
because these will help her put on weight
You should give top up feed only your milk not sufficient for baby
ya...but her understanding is that only these will help put on weight
I strongly encourage that exclusive breast feed for 6 months
ok...is colic aid safe
If you give exclusive breast feeding every 2 hours and on requirement then definitely she will put on weight
my doc said use rasely
Colic should be given only after consulting your doctor
oh ok
thanks a lot doctor...
If you feel that baby is feeling discomfort due to gastric problem than you can give it after asking your doctor
oh ok
thanks very helpfull talking to u
Do you have any more queries?
no that is it
You are welcome
Thanks for visiting me here. Bye for now.
