I was great went home a day after, I had no tearing, no stitches nothing. I even said to a friend that I would give birth over being pregnant any day. Fingers crossed this one is the same!!

But then again I was in labor for 28 hours and had pushed for 2 hours as well. I also ripped and had trauma from them pulling her out so fast while I pushed.

Sore, exhausted, sleep deprived, starved, filthy, lol. It was painful to walk but managed to take care of my baby, take a shower, and eat. I also felt so in love with my baby girl :)

My first i felt so bad. I tore and was bruised from my knees up to my boobs and was bleeding so bad it was no fun but with my baby girl i just was a weekago i tore a little but felt like i could leave straight from delivery room and go home. Sadly theres a manditory 24 hour rule here lol.

I was tired but still didn't get much rest it was uncomfortable sitting down so much because I was cut down there but I sucked it up & took care of the baby in hospital. But wow felt so different not having the belly anymore

I was really sore and exhausted after I had my son took me almost 3hrs to push his big head out and I ended up getting cut so it hurt to stand/ walk or sit for like a week..I also swelled really bad but I think that's bc I was trying to do too much but other then that I felt great to have my little man with me :)

With my first I was in a lot of pain, it hurt to sit or satand.  Turns out she broke my tailbone on the way out.  My second and third I felt great pretty much right away.
