Hot salty baths, eat plenty of fibre... drink water... think positive that tender feeling will be here for a while x x x
healing from labor
This is my first, and I have so many questions!
I was lucky and only got one stitch. 1) How do I know if I popped it? 2) How do I know it's infected?
And then I'm also experiencing some tenderness with my vulva. 3) Is that normal?

Hot salty baths are ok after 6 weeks sorry I though u had baby 4 weeks ago. My baby is 12 weeks and that tender feeling is still here but gets better with time.

Lo
Literally had a baby 4 days ago and dr said absolutely no baths, no swimming, nothing where u r sitting in water. Just running water like showers. This is to avoid infection
You're going to be sore for a couple of weeks. Just keep the area clean and use the squeeze bottle from the hospital. It's very unlikely you'll pop the Stitch. Make sure to go to your 6-week appointment where your doctor will check you out and make sure everything looks good and avoid sex until then. Also no tampons.
