4th degree ripped :(

Had my baby girl on the 27th. I ripped from the inside out all the way to my butt :( I am in so much pain I haven't pooped yet. Talking stool softeners I'm so scared that I will rip my stitches eh I go .. I haven't had the urge to go yet though. .. :( but I'm glad my baby is here and healthy she has some wounds as well they had to use the forceps to help me get her out she couldn't get past my pubic bone :( she was 7 lbs 8 Oz had circumstance 34. I weighed only 100 lbs before pregnancy and I was 135 when I gave birth

Dang yeah I had my epidural during labor they turned it off though cause I was numb that I couldn't feel where I was pushing. But I am on 4 different med right now. Perks for my pain Naproxyn for my cramping. An antibiotic and an iron pill. Plus my prenatal vitamins and a stool softener.  Yeah I'm in alot of pain. I hope I heal soon :( and I hope your pain eases up you should talk to your doctor about getting some pain medicine.

Oh and the doctors didn't even prescribe me any meds. I had no pain medication during delivery, and they didn't give me anything for afterwards either. I had my baby two weeks ago and I am still in pain. Did they at least give you something for the pain?
