Gave birth about 12 hours ago - have not passed motion yet. How painful is it going to be? Had a natural tear which required stitches.

My friend had the same fear. She had her first bowel movement a day after birth. Wasn't painful for her and didn't tear any stitches. As a precaution, she did drink plenty of fluid and had some fruits and vegetables (for fiber). Hope this helps! Congrats by the way!! :)
