Life after a 3rd degree tear

I recently gave birth to my little one but unfortunately it resulted in a forceps delivery and a 3rd degree tear. Tmi but I seem to have complete control over my bladder but when I need to poop i need to go urgently. Just wondering if anyone else had the same issue and did it resolve itself? Also what are the chances of making a full recovery or will I always have some sort of issue now because of the tear 🙃

I had my baby last weekend 6yrs post 3rd degree tear, also 9yrs post EMCS. Had a forceps delivery, 4.4kg baby with a small episiotomy.

so far my pelvic floor has more or less vanished 👀😳 hoping it returns!!! But no repeat 3rd!!
