Hi Everyone,

It has been almost 3 weeks since my D&C and lap surgery. I was at the dr.s today and she was pressing on my stomach and it is still pretty tender. Sometimes after I pee I think I feel my muscles contracting from my bladder being empty... it is a weird feeling, my urine was tested but it looks to be normal. Even now sitting about 5 min after I went I can still feel it. Could it be my ovaries starting to work again or maybe the fact that she was pressing around? Can anyone tell me if this is common?

It's been a long time, but I remember being pretty tender for a few weeks after my lap.  If your doc didn't think it was abnormal, then try not to worry.  It takes time for your body to heal...and they did, after all, rearrange your insides a bit.  I hope you'll feel better very soon.
