Hi mummies,

How long does your wound take to heal? Is it 2 weeks, or?

Mine took around 12 or more days as i feel that there is still 1 area not completely healed yet..

eh my next appt is on mar which is 6 wks since delivery

Oh.. Yours is 6weeks? You can asked to go earlier. My check up was 1 week after delivery. You can get the lotion from Guardian. With that lotion is better. Go to those bigger Guardian outlet. Not all Guardian sells that lotion. It helps to relieve pain and faster healing process. Mine is almost healing. Doc said left just the knot which took longer time to heal.

don't worry, as long as your wound not inflamed or painful after 1-2weeks it's ok to see the gynae later.
my post-delivery check up also 6weeks later, i find it better cos by 6weeks i have no more discharge, so when doctor check not so uncomfortable.
