Did you get the "burning fire" when pushing out #3 or more?

I remember the intense burning like i was about to split in two when delivering dd1 i will never forget it.

when i delivered dd#2 she was smaller and i had only gave birth to dd1 13mths earlier, so it was not really painful to push her out (guessing i was stretched still).

im 26 weeks pg with #3 and its been 8yrs since i last gave birth and am begining to think about the birth etc..having a little panic about feeling the "burn"

Has anyone had a long time between births and not felt the burn?
Just wondering if i stay sort of stretched and flexible down there after all this time or will it be like giving birth for the first time all over?

thanks sorry if its tmi! x
