Pain after tubal ligation?

Has anyone else here had a tubal ligation? I had one two days ago and I am still in a lot of pain. It hasn't gotten worse but it doesn't seem to be getting better either. I didn't expect a tiny little hole to hurt so much. How long does it take to stop hurting?

I have had one like 18 years ago.. and it takes awhile before the pain goes away.. i would say maybe a good month.. but see i also had a c-section at the same time.. so that in itself takes a while to heal.. And plus things are differnt now with the way they do things.. so maybe now it wouldn't take so long.. But i know its a few weeks.. Good luck on that..and it will get better.. get plenty of rest...

Thanks to both of you. The pain went down considerably last night so I think everything is ok. I feel alot better now.

There should be little or no pain after two days. If you have alot of pain, you may want to get checked by your doctor, you may have an infection.
