[quote=Anonymous]I've had two 8.25 pound babies, both vaginally. The youngest is 2.5 months old. One episiotomy and one 2nd degree tear. No issues with either - stitches fell out after a week or so and everything healed well. I had hemorrhoids with my second starting at about 32 weeks (baby born at 42) which resolved at a month postpartum. I was up and walking around within an hour of both (once epidural wore off). No issues with fecal incontinence but some issues with urinary if I laugh to hard or sneeze too hard. That happened with my first as well and got loads better after about 6 months with a lot of kegels and Pilates. Sex for the first time at 8 weeks was a little bit weird at first but then it was fine. No pain or dryness. [/quote]
