I'm 6 weeks postpartum and I had sex last night. I got a second degree tear and Labia abrasion which required stitches, I was fine durinf sex apart from at the end when I had to say stop as it felt like I split open. Today it's stinging to wee and I'm so worried I've re opened is this possible lol . Looking with a mirror it looks pretty open down there but idk if that's the joys of my new vagina since having a baby

I would call your midwife in the morning and get it checked out if it feels weird. Everyone (and every birth) and their recovery are different. If there's a gaping hole, I would definitely get it checked out!
