Did you ever feel "heavy" in your vagina after giving birth? && Difficulty urinating??

Since I've given birth, I notice when I stand, I feel a little heavy down there, mainly on the side my stitches are on (2nd degree tear from my vagina to my anus) I also notice it's a little hard to pee as well. I don't know if it's from my muscles being weakened from pushing or just from being so swollen that I can't tell if I'm using 'that' muscle. I've been doing kegels.
