Infected stitches postpartum 😭😭😭

So my healing isn’t going quite like I’d expect it to. I’m 3.5 weeks postpartum and I’m pretty sure some of my stitches are infected. 😩 Going in tomorrow to get checked.

I finally got the courage to look “down there” today, and it isn’t quite as bad as i expected it to be, but I wish I was healing as fast as other mamas seem to be. I had a 2nd degree tear. I just feel so dirty now.
