Babies: 0 - 3 Months

kinda freaking out about my stitches?

it's been about 5 weeks almost 6 weeks since the baby was born and husband and i had sex today and i felt something rip or tear but it didn't hurt and before we had sex today i was done bleeding and i wasn't hurting anymore from my stitches and i just went to the bathroom and i was wiping and there was blood. there's light bleeding but should i be concerned? am i healed and the stitches didn't dissolve all the way? my husband just told me to properly care for it til the appointment which is this friday. do you think they'll have to stitch me up again? it didn't hurt or anything and during sex it doesn't hurt either and when i felt that tear it didn't hurt but i just knew something tore.

i'm paranoid that i'll get an infection or i'll have to get more stitches or something.

Re: kinda freaking out about my stitches?

  • If I had to guess...I'm sure you are fine and it's just your body getting used to that action again. I am 5 weeks PP and have my appointment on Friday as well..I haven't had sex yet because my bleeding stopped just a few days ago and I figure waiting would be easy, but if you aren't in pain, I would figure you are fine. Maybe just watch the bleeding for an increase or any drastic changes.

  • we started having sex since 3 weeks, and i actually bled today after i felt that rip feeling. i called my obgyn and she said im probably tender..i think its the feeling that it tore is what is freaking out because i wasnt bleeding any other time my husband and i were having sex. thank you ladies for helping me out by the way
  • grrr i wish i waited cause now i'm paranoid lol, but yeah im going to wait til the appointment and im having these weird cramps and idk if thats from the stitches the nurse on call said as long as im not heavy bleeding
