I had an episiotomy and it took 8 weeks for it to heal completely and if i over did it i would be in a lot of pain but i had no vaginal swelling and if i did it only lasted a day or 2. Dont wear jeans and continue to do the sitz baths those really helped me and RELAX...i know that as soon as i lost my bump and knew i could do things more freely after my lil guy came out i wanted to go for walks and to malls and everything...big mistake.

Ice packs really helped me A LOT, they numb and reduce swelling. I slept with one. You can put ice in a latex glove or rip the diaper lining and put ice in there, that way it will absorb any lochia bleeding as well. It will end soon! Good luck!

If you feel like the pain is unbearable, or you are concerned about it, you should give your ob/gyn a call. Feel better, and congrats!

But that only lasted a week an a half. everyone is different but for me the swelling went down in about a week, the pain was only bad when I overdid it and didn’t rest as much as I should have.
