Postpartum vaginas!

My left labia literally disappeared. It like shrunk after I gave birth or something. I remember seeing it for the first time postpartum and I just started crying because my vagina looks different now. I’m 2 almost 3 weeks pp and my left labia is still yet to be found. I asked my ob at my 2 week check up and he was just like “well it’s all healed normally but if it really bothers you, you can get surgery to make it look more normal” but I don’t want to get surgery either. I didn’t tear my perineum at all, only tore on the upper left labia and at the very bottom. I’m a first time mom and all of this is new to me. I’m so afraid of having painful sex. I’m just distraught to be honest. I miss my vagina :(

I knew it would look different but like a whole labia just disappearing???

Please let me know if any of you experienced the same thing.
