    Diclo with my first and ibuprofen for my second. I tore pretty badly with my first and practically not at all with my second.

    dilaudid Was my prescription but I only took one and then was alternating Tylenol and Advil after that.

    Motrin, best stuff ever. All I needed was 600mg Motrin for a few days postpartum.

    Motrin. I was breastfeeding so I was avoiding anything stronger.

    Ibuprofin, which I can't take because it gives me a headache. They offered percocet but I declined and just took Tylenol.

    Percocet and ibuprofen after my c section. I didn't end up taking any Percocet, but I was glad to have them on hand just in case!

    @coopsmama: it's one of the big cons on adding a third kid for me, but I have many more cons on that list. Glad I'm not crazy, it was incredible pain and I have a really high tolerance.

    My midwives "prescribed" an Advil/Tylenol rotation every 4 hours. My husband was like a drill sergeant with them and I was thankful because the few times I forgot to take them, I regretted it!

    @lemondrop: I kid you not, when I got my BFP last week it was one of the first things I thought about. Just awful pain!
