I am so embarrassed to post this and also how little I know about my own body but here goes

Yesterday I went to shave my vagina and since having two babies the task itself is harder than normal as I am carrying more weight than I would like to, so I decided after to a mirror down there to check if I had missed any. And well.... My vagina looks different to how I remember for sure but what's concerning me is inside my vagina (so if I open my lips up sorry!!) There is lots of flesh it's not like a hole. I don't no if I'm explaining this right but I don't no if it's normal?? Iv tried to google but understandable there isn't pictures of this on Google.

Is this normal? What should I see when I look
I appreciate this is a really stupid question and I really should learn more about my body, but it's not somewhere I normally look tb

Not sure how old this post is but ...This is so bizarre I am literally dealing with the EXACT same thing right now !!
My LO is 5 months old now, and I've not looked down there too much, but at least a few times since her birth and all looked normal I think!
But yesterday when I had a look down there I saw the exact same thing you did! No distinct hole/ entrance just lots of skin and i absolutely freaked out
I had an urgent doctor's appointment today as I am absolutely petrified something was happening like a prolapse or something ... my doctor says apparently can happen after birth , like the skin inside the vagina can be weaker? And can change the appearance I guess! I'm not sure how correct this is as I'm now really worried!
Doctor said to keep an eye out for pain, heaviness or anything abnormal
Hope you're doing ok! ☺️
