I'm wondering if it's safe to use a belly belt after delivering a baby, especially when I'm also considering family planning. Are there any risks or things I need to be cautious about?

Using a belly belt after delivery can provide support and help with post-partum recovery, especially for abdominal muscles. However, it's important to consult your healthcare provider before using it, especially if youve had family planning procedures, to ensure it's safe and suitable for your specific recovery needs.

View allI've been having some burning and pain down there after some oral and fingering. It even bled a bit after a few days, but I thought maybe that's normal since it was my first time. It's been over a week now, and while it doesn't hurt all the time, the pain and irritation just come and go randomly. Do you think there's something wrong with me?
You may have developed a vaginal infection or irritation due to the sexual activity. The symptoms of burning sensation, pain, and occasional bleeding could indicate an infection such as a yeast infection or bacterial vaginosis.

You can also try using a gentle feminine wash like Vagisil to help with irritation. If the symptoms persist or worsen, it is important to see a healthcare provider for further evaluation and treatment.

I'm really worried because I took the ipill about 20 hours after having unprotected sex back in April, but now I've taken a pregnancy test twice, and both times it's come back positive. I also visited my doctor, and she confirmed the pregnancy through a physical exam. What I'm really concerned about is whether the ipill could have any negative effects on my baby.
