with my first baby I ended up with 34 stitches. ripped backwards. the pain was pretty rough but not unbearable. hospital gave squirt bottle and sitz bath to clean up which really helped. they also prescribed me a numbing foam which was a god - send!!! don't worry!! it's worth it!!

@2615mommi2b, yes but I didn't rip too far down maybe an inch and if you keep it clean it doesn't hurt and my hospital gave me a take home sitz bath with fizzy stuff to put in it to help heal

They just stitch it up, no matter how you tear. But believe me, ripping down or to the side is the best. Up is where the real pain is. Lol

My friend ripped to her butthole, tmi. It was hell for her when she needed to go #2.

I ripped to the side. The pain was only bad when I peed, usually. Stings like a mother f'er. I won't lie, I think it was worse than the contractions because I had to force myself to keep peeing... It took about a week to heal.

I ripped with my daughter 6 years ago. I stopped having contractions and got upset and kept pushing and ripped. I got stitches and used a squirt bottle to clean and I was fine in a week or 2. no complications
