Vagina too tight for intercourse 3 months after childbirth
Hi - I had a baby 3 months ago. The childbirth was terrible. I had 4th degree tears, lots of cutting, tearing and had a recto-vaginal fistula repaired about 8 weeks ago. I had gone to my gyno and was told I should be able to have sex but to go slow as everything was healing well.When I had my gyno pap done it was VERY painful when she was opening the clamp as well. So we gave it a whirl and he wasn't able to enter me more than an inch w/ out me pushing back in very sore pain. It felt as if a knife was coming in. I decided to investigate it myself and found that if I use my finger I don't feel any pain though it seems I hit an instant wall and have to bend my finger. Not sure if that is how it was before. Is this normal? I know that area has been under some serious trauma and needs time to heal but I don't know anyone that has gone through this and wonder if I was sewn too tight? Is this possible?
Any help would be so appreciated. Thank you.
