It's been about 5 weeks since I delivered my son vaginally and of course I was sore down there. Not always, but a lot at night I would get a dull ache in my vagina. It happens less frequently now, but it has been aching all day today and I was just wondering if anyone else has this. Is it normal to persist for so long? When should it go away for good? I guess I just thought I would feel closer to 100% by now. I only had a second degree tear, but I did push for 3 hours so maybe that has something to do with it?
