@hopefulthinking105, thank you

@sheabutta, I was the same way. Take stool softeners too. I only had three stitches so that part of recovery hasn't been too bad (I notice resting makes all the difference) but what kind of labor determines your recovery. I wish you all the best!

@hopefulthinking105, thank you, for some reason recovery is more scary then actually giving birth.

Thank you @sjgraham1922

Earth mama bottom spray is wonderful after using the warm squeeze bottle after going to the bathroom, try to rest as much as possible and feet up as much as possible so you can heal quicker and don't try to do it all, accept help 😊

Take your time. Enjoy loving on baby
