I had my baby boy in October..my first. I pushed for 4 hours and ended up with a 3rd degree tear that ended up needing a bunch of stitches. needless to say it was a bit of a recovery and hard to move for a few days. the last thing I ever wanted to think about was tampons and sex! but now I'm 7 weeks post partum and everything is all healed up. my problem now is that my husband can't fit...like the skin around my vaginal opening is SO tight and it hurts to be stretched even the tiniest bit. has anyone dealt with this before? what did you do to help/fix it? I don't know if I should maybe try perineal massage or if that only helps before birth. any suggestions are welcome!
