Hi mamas, due date is fast approaching and my only concern is tearing! I’m planning to get the epidural to be comfortable but I’m worried about the afterwards. TMI- I am very “tight” down there, I tore a little bit every time my SO and I had relations until the muscle would stretch, for some reason my back vaginal muscle just won’t stretch easily.

What are some products you would recommend and how long did it take you to recover from a tear?

Also, how long after did it hurt to pee?

I’m just nervous and looking for a little wisdom from those of you who have done this before!
