3 Weeks Today

Figured I should probably get around to an update around this time. I've been to see the doctor twice since my last post and was told everything is healing great. I still have some redness, swelling, and bumps on the one side-but he said that'll all smooth out. You can already see a really big difference in the size and shape, which is very encouraging. Now it's just a waiting game.

In regards to my last post, still don't know exactly what caused those blood clots for two days. The nurse advised me it can happen when you have a yeast infection, which I did/do. Been using over the counter cream since last Tuesday and washing twice a day. Never had a yeast infection before but it seems to be pretty common with labiaplasty.

I wore my skinny jeans for the first time since the surgery! I wore them on two separate occasions, but the second time I chose to take them off. Bearable, but not exactly comfortable...

I am basically sitting and walking back to normal, just won't cross my legs or rush myself in a position where I am putting too much pressure, like crouching down or my typical strange sleeping positions. If I feel uncomfortable I don't push myself (besides work, where I have to).

Soon I will post pictures! Probably...

HELP?

Last night I had a pretty scary experience. First I look in my pad and see bright new blood, more than I've seen this entire time. Then because the bleeding isn't stopping, it's dripping all over the floor, I go to rinse myself in the shower only to see a big blood clot fall into the drain.

It's day 11 now. If you'd asked me yesterday I'd tell you I'm healing really well. At work I moved (almost) normally without any pain and I'd noticed myself losing stitches the few days before.
I'm going to see the doctor this afternoon but I don't know what to expect.

Is this a major problem, should I be concerned?
Will it affect my results?
Will I have to get it stitched up again?
Do I need more time off to rest if I do have to get it re-stitched?

Sorry for being "graphic", but if anyone has gone through this I would really appreciate your help.

Day 9

Swelling is going down every day now, I love it. My swelling had peaked at day 5 so it took a bit of time. Itchiness has definitely started up. From what I've read online, that can happen around the time the stitches dissolve.

Today I go back to work. My work is fairly physical, too. I'll be running around, bending over, and probably sweating a decent amount-all things that would probably not be best for me right now. Not too mention, I still am waddling just a wee bit... I'll be good though! Honestly I'm just happy to see some real healing progress.
