Yes!! I had that. And it was a few hours after the birth when I was in the main ward. This old lady nurse came round and absolutely insisted on it. Then when the next one was due, she made me do it myself!!!

I had it once I'd come round from GA with my first baby, and then whilst numb after a spinal with my elective section. Didn't feel it either time, and to be honest, I didn't care!

Its a diclofenac pessary....I had with my first child but not with my 2nd as it made both me and my first poorly ( well know for causing bad tummys) we apparently have a sensitivity . They give it straight after....then you get it in tablet form.for lasting pain relief...that or co codamol. -

i think the idea of having a catheter inserted is worse than a pessary
after my last c section 3 and a half years ago they came and gave me one of these, you dont hardly feel it and they do it so quick you dont notice
theres nothing to it -

Thank you ladies, Still really not keen athought they probably did it with my first c-section but wasnt aware.
Again...I probably wont be aware this time....lets hope I forget!!!

I no it sounds odd and sorry to be blunt.
I have a general c-section guide given to me by the hospital (it is dated 2006 mind)
However it says whilst in theatre they will administor pain relief up your bum!!!! (Sorry again)
My last c-section was under GA (my daugher was born sleeping) so wasnt aware of any of what went on, was also at a different hospial.
Cant anyone enlighten me????
Thank you xx
