My little guy is just over 7 weeks old and I had a 4th degree tear with his vacuum assisted delivery. My next doctors appt isn’t until April 9th but me and hubby are wanting to bone lol. For anyone who had a 4th degree tear and TONS of stitches, how long did you wait to do the deed and did you wait until your doctor checked you over first? Did it hurt? Was it better than before? Tell me what to expect lol (at our 2 week visit she checked my stitches and said I was healing well, but at the next visit she wanted to do a rectal exam to make sure everything healed correctly 😣)
