Postpartum pain

Hihi, I know is an awkward question but does it hurt to pee and poop after delivery? It is my first pregnancy and I am anxious about all the postpartum pain. 😩

Hi hi mama, it’s great that you are thinking of postpartum recovery :) Truth is, it will sting a little. Recovery really depends on your birth. A natural delivery vs a C-section will have different paths to recovery. If it’s a natural birth you’re going for and you’re afraid of the sting because of slight tears during birth, I recommend two things: 1) get a bottle of Earth Mama Perineal Spray to spray whenever you visit the toilet. This gives you a cool feeling and numbing the area a little ( I know mamas who spray vigorously whenever visiting the toilet) and it’s got a relaxing lavender scent to it too! You can find it here: https://shopee.sg/product/73690472/2077297819?smtt=0.114198014-1606617504.9 2) get a wash bottle like this one: https://shopee.sg/product/4937640/98732586?smtt=0.114198014-1606617818.9 I find sprays can be brutal and this is gentler on the area down there. I hope this helps :)
