Wow!! You've got a big BB there. You delivered at how many weeks? Was it natural or C-sect delivery?

Dun worry. It's normal to feel anxious and uncertain about handling 2 young kids. But when the time comes, your mommy instincts will take over and you'll naturally be able to handle it. But most importantly, dun fret over the small stuffs as tat can make you feel stressed and overwhlem. Take things easy and settle them one-by-one. *good luck*

For normal delivery, the recovery time is faster. Usually about 5-7 days. But if you get an episotomy, then recovery will take slightly longer. For me, I feel more pain cos I've got super low threshold when it comes to pain. Little bit also scream liaoz. *lol* Anyway, before they stitch you up, they will give u a jab on the thigh if you are not on epi to numb the area. So you won't feel a thing. It's only later, when the painkiller wears off. As for poo-ing after delivery, the nurse will give you some thing to soften the poo. So dun worry. For pee-ing, lean forwards slightly. This will help prevent the pee from getting to the perineal area which can cause stinging pain. HTH's
