How do you care for your stitches after natural child birth? How long did it take to heal?

It took about 1-2 weeks for my wound to heal, i.e. not feeling pain completely. I washed my wound each time after pee and poop by gently spraying water on it and dab dry. After dabbing dry, I will spray Earth Mama Angel Baby Bottom Spray to ease my wound pain. Also, remember to change your sanitary pad frequently to avoid infection. As my gynae did not give me any antiseptic wash, I did sitz bath using epsom salt to speed up the healing twice a day. I just soaked the salt in a warm water in stiz bath about 5-10mins. You can get sitz bath from wastons. If your gynae gave you antiseptic wash, you can just use that. To prevent my wound pain during pooping, I asked my gynae to prescribe stool softener for me. You can purchase it from any pharmacy store too.
