Vaginal birth healing

Megan

I'm at 2 weeks from giving birth to my first child. I had a second degree tear and stitches. At this point, I'm not in a whole lot of pain, but it did feel like there is something"stuck" in the front part on my vagina, near my clit. It also now burns when I get done using the bathroom and when I rinse it using the Peri bottle, and continues to hurt until I have stood up and replaced the pad. Doesn't hurt to pee or poop, just after when I'm sitting in the toilet and rinsing.

Is this normal?? I know they say 4-6 weeks to heal, but it makes it super uncomfortable to go to the bathroom
