OB never told me?

Question

Why didn't my OB tell me that it's possible to develop diaper rash MYSELF postpartum? The baby's fine, but 2 weeks out of the hospital now I have it.

Answer 1

If your OB told you about everything that was POSSIBLE you'd never leave the office.

Answer 2

Sounds like you are allergic to the pads. Try a different brand.

Answer 3

Are you wearing a diaper for some reason?  If not it's just a rash from something else, Your doctor probably didn't tell you because it does not happen a lot.

Answer 4

it could be a very bad yeast infection

or some other vaginal infection

google the symptoms

get to the doctor to be sure you didnt transmit an infection on to the baby without knowing it
