Vaginal delivery is the most common and safest type of childbirth. You'll probably hear the term ânatural childbirthâ .The risk for discomfort after the birth is greater due to normal and expected surgical pain along the incision and abdominal soreness. These discomforts can last for several months. There is an increased risk for rupture of the C-section scar during subsequent deliveries and subsequent pregnancies.

I'm finding that I'm getting really wet during sex, and it's not as pleasurable for us. Is this normal? What could be causing it, and are there any remedies or things we can try to manage this?

Excessive wetness during sex can be normal for some people, but if it's causing discomfort or reducing pleasure, it could be due to factors like hormonal changes, anxiety, or over-stimulation. It's important to communicate with your partner and consider using a water-based lubricant if dryness is an issue. If the problem persists, it may be helpful to consult a healthcare professional for a more tailored solution.

I'm really worried because my period usually starts on the 17th, but after having sex with my boyfriend on the 23rd, I got pregnant. I took an i-pill right after, and my period came early on the 2nd, which got me really stressed out. Now it's the 3rd, and I'm still not having my period. What should I do?
