Stitches After Normal Delivery: How to Care & Recover
Stitches after vaginal delivery are very common, and most first-time moms may have to experience this. Obstetricians reveal that a light tearing of the vaginal wall usually takes place during vaginal delivery, and stitches are required to prevent further tearing and to keep infections at bay.
The stitches are usually sore in the beginning, and they may begin to itch as they start to heal. It's important to take a little extra care after delivery so that the stitches do not get infected and cause complications. After a vaginal delivery, the vagina is generally painful and swollen. Thus, proper care is essential to help the vagina recover and for the stitches to heal completely.
Why Do You Need Stitches After Childbirth?
At the time of delivery, the baby travels through the birth canal or vagina. Although this area is stretchy and can expand to accommodate the baby’s size, a baby may require more space. When this happens, the perineum (the area between the anus and vulva) may enlarge beyond its capability and endure some tears in the process. Some tears are superficial and may heal naturally. However, sometimes, there may be tearing of the muscle tissues, and that may lead to substantial bleeding and significant pain. Therefore, they may require stitches.
In some cases, women may have to undergo an episiotomy. An episiotomy is a surgical incision made at the perineum to widen the opening in order to help the baby pass through easily and to avert the tearing of tissues at the time of delivery. In such cases, stitches are required as well.
When Does a Tear Need Stitches?
Tearing of tissues commonly occurs during delivery, especially in the case of first-time mothers. Tears may differ in severity. Tears can be largely divided into four classes:
First-degree tear: These tears can be so minor that they heal on their own without any treatment. They are superficial as they involve the tearing of the skin of the perineum and the outer layer of the vaginal opening. They often require no stitches and heal rapidly.
Second-degree tear: These tears run deeper, extending down to the muscles below the skin. These require stitches through the layers of skin. They generally heal in a few weeks’ time.
Third-degree tear: These tears are more severe and can stretch deep through the perineal tissues and muscles, all the way down to the anal sphincter (muscle around the anus). They need stitches compulsorily and can cause significant pain for a few months. These tears can put you at the risk of anal incontinence (unintentional passing of stools).
Fourth-degree tear: This is a serious tear that goes further deep through the muscles around the anus and the tissue beneath, all the way down to the rectum. You may require a small operation to stitch up the tear.
In some cases, a tear may ensue on top of the vagina, close to the urethra. These tears are usually very small and may require few or no stitches. They generally don’t include the muscles, hence heal very fast. They may result in discomfort while urinating.
How the Stitching Is Done
If it is a minor tear, you may be stitched in the room where you have delivered. The obstetrician, after administering a local anesthetic to numb the area, will close up the tear with a 'running stitch'. Most of the time, dissolvable stitches are used as they are not required to be removed on healing.
Cases involving episiotomy or second-degree tears are taken care of in the delivery room itself, but since in third-degree tears the tear runs deeper than the skin, the patient is usually transferred to an operating theatre. The obstetrician may give a local anesthetic. If required, an epidural, spinal, or general anesthetic may be given, depending on the degree of damage. However, this is rare. That is followed by the stitching of the perineum. A thin tube (catheter) may be put into the bladder to empty out the urine. This will enable the perineum to heal quickly. Usually, episiotomy stitches are absorbable or dissolvable sutures.
How Long Does It Take to Heal?
The time taken for vaginal delivery stitches to heal is generally less, especially if good care is taken. The healing procedure usually takes 2-3 weeks after delivery in the case of a normal episiotomy, which involves a small incision. But this process may vary from person to person. The larger the tear, the longer the healing time. The pain may reduce after a week but the discomfort may continue for a month or so.
A more serious tear that involves deeper stitches may take 6 to 8 weeks to heal entirely. The pain may continue for about a month. The stitches often begin to itch around the time they start healing. It may be a good idea to schedule a checkup with the doctor at around 6 weeks to monitor the progress of the stitches.
How Can You Soothe the Tender Area?
Stitches can be fairly painful after a vaginal delivery. Certain things that can be done to soothe them are:
Sitting in a tub of lukewarm water may not only help soothe the sore stitches but also ease the swelling. Keep in mind to gently pat the area dry later on with a soft, clean towel. Alternatively, a cold compress or a gel pack can also be used.
If you are experiencing pain while sitting, you can try looking for ring-shaped inflatable pillows that are specially designed to offer comfort while sitting.
To relieve pressure from your perineum while passing stools, gently press a clean pad over the stitches.
If you feel discomfort while peeing, you may find putting warm water on the area useful in easing the burning sensation.
Bear in mind to keep the perineum and vaginal area clean and dry to prevent an infection.
You may opt for safe painkillers to deal with the pain, but it is advisable to first consult a doctor in this respect.
Tips to Recover Faster
Here is a list of tips that can help you recover faster:
Strictly use an antiseptic cream prescribed by your doctor.
Remember to wash the vaginal area with water every time after urinating, and clean your bottom carefully from front to back.
Exposing the stitches to fresh air every day for 10-15 minutes may help them dry faster.
Bear in mind to clean the stitches with warm water and non-perfumed, gentle soaps.
Soaking in a tub of warm water for 15-20 minutes a few times in a day can prove helpful in easing the pain. You may add in some antiseptic lotion to the warm water if you desire.
Include a lot of fibre in your diet, have balanced meals, and drink plenty of water to prevent constipation.
You can go for over-the-counter stool softeners so as to make your bathroom process less stressful on your stitches. However, make sure to consult your doctor before doing so.
It may be sensible to use Western-style toilets instead of Indian style ones so as to avoid exerting unnecessary pressure on the stitches.
Taking regular short walks and doing certain pelvic floor exercises can aid in boosting blood circulation which may quicken the recovery process.
It is essential to wash your hands properly after using the toilet and before changing your maternity pads to prevent the infection from spreading.
Refrain from lifting heavy weights and doing strenuous exercises to avoid exerting pressure on the stitches.
It is important to maintain proper personal hygiene by keeping the vaginal area dry and clean to reduce the risk of possible infections. It is best to frequently change maternity pads and take care that they don’t irritate the sore stitches.
Some things to strictly avoid during your recovery: salt baths, sexual activity, usage of tampons, scented soaps and body washes, talcum powders, or extremely hot water in the area.
Can You Avoid Having Stitches?
Most doctors may like to go for an episiotomy for normal delivery, particularly in the case of first-time moms. Still, if you wish to avoid having stitches, it is best to discuss your options with the doctor at length.
There may be certain things that can be tried to reduce the possibility of a severe tear during delivery - gently massaging the perineum daily during pregnancy, or applying a warm compress on the perineum at the time of labour. You can also ask your prenatal instructor to teach you proper squatting and pelvic floor exercises or yoga to strengthen the pelvic muscles and enhance skin elasticity.
Will It Cause Problems in the Future?
It is important to know how to take care of after-delivery stitches properly so that they heal safely and completely. Some women may experience pain during intercourse. In such a scenario, it is best to wait a while and let the stitches heal properly. In some cases, women may be troubled with continued perineal pain and difficulty in regulating stools or urine. Whatever may be the problem, it can be prevented by taking good care of your health, eating healthy and exercising regularly. If the problem still persists, seek appropriate medical help.
When to Consult Your Gynaecologist
Despite good care, certain complications may sometimes arise with stitches. It is advisable to consult your gynaecologist in case you experience the following:
Constant and severe pain in the stitches area
Foul smell from the vaginal area
High fever and chills
Intense burning sensation while urinating
Lack of control over bowel movements
Uncontrollable bleeding, especially clots
Excessive redness or swelling of the stitches
Unusual discharge from the stitches
It is not difficult to understand why many women may like to avoid having stitches at the time of delivery. But some tearing of tissue during childbirth is inevitable and is considered a usual part of the entire process of birth. The important thing is to take sufficient rest and stay healthy to help recover faster and to heal completely. Read more

Maria Name Meaning and Origin
Derived from the Hebrew name Maryam/Mariam, Maria in Latin means ‘beloved,’ ‘sea of bitterness,’ and ‘rebellious.’ It’s also considered a variation of the name Mary, the mother of Jesus in some cultures. Alternative definitions suggest ‘wished-for child’ and ‘mistress or lady of the sea.’ Maria is also a feminine variation for the Roman name ‘Marius’ and is popular as a masculine middle name in Poland, Italy, and Germany. The Biblical form of the name stems from Latin Mirjam, which has a Hebrew and Egyptian origin.
What Does Maria Mean?
The meaning of Maria in Latin is “drop of the sea.” When mar, meaning ‘drop,’ or mará, meaning ‘bitterness,’ combine with yam meaning ‘sea,’ it forms ‘sea of bitterness.’ The meaning of Maria is also “star of the sea,” which comes from Hebrew “maor” meaning ‘star/light,’ while the Hebrew “meri” means “wished for child” or ‘rebellious one.’ Maria means “beloved” which comes from Egyptian “mry.” Derived from Hebrew “róm” meaning height, Maria can refer to the “exalted one.”
Origin
Maria is found in many languages and is mainly influenced by Latin Christianity. Historically, Maria is a feminine form of the Roman name Marius. After the spread of Christianity across the Roman empire, Maria became the Latinised form of the name of Miriam, the mother of Jesus. The Syro-Aramaic name Maryam is derived from the Biblical Hebrew name Miriam. The Latin name Maria and the Hebrew-derived Maria combined to form a single name. Maria is also sometimes used as a male (middle) name in many Central European countries and countries with strong Catholic traditions, where it signified patronage of the Virgin Mary. Other Marias who appear in the New Testament are Maria Magdalena and Maria Salomé, disciples of Jesus, and Maria Betânia, sister of Lazarus. The name is also rendered Maryam in the Quran, but Arabic reflects the Christian given name as MÄrya or MÄryÄ as in MÄrya al-Qibiá¹iyya, a Coptic Egyptian woman who was a bondmaid to the Islamic prophet Muhammad. Maria is widely used in both Spanish and English-speaking countries.

Dine together, laugh together, share your day–get started on your way to romance.
Fun Date Night Ideas to Try
1. Go Camping
Take a break from your mundane routine and go camping with your husband. There are many fun things to do on a date night like this. You could light a bonfire, play soft romantic music, dance to your favourite track and have a cook-out. If you and your husband love adventure, you could take things to the next level by picking a campsite on a hilltop or on the banks of a stream. And if you and hubby just can’t bear to be so far away from your babies, pitch a tent in your backyard and make like you’re in the wild! Just give it a try, no matter how bogged down or busy you may be. These small acts are the ones that count in the end and make a big difference in steering your relationship in the right direction.
2. Gaze at the Stars
One of the simplest date night ideas, star gazing can be extremely relaxing and romantic. Spend a couple of hours snuggling up in a blanket out on the roof or on the lawn after putting the children to bed. Watch the stars twinkle and see the moon in all its glory. Set up a table under the starry sky, light a few scented candles and dine together. It’s an inexpensive date night idea that the two of you will want to do again and again.
3. Re-Enact Your First Date
Fall in love all over again by re-enacting your first date. Go to the same multiplex or restaurant or amusement park you went to on your first date to bring back all the fond memories and relive those beautiful moments. Make this romantic date night idea even more interesting by packing your favourite wine and ending the day sipping it while cosying up with your beloved.
4. Go on a Long Drive
Nothing can be as rejuvenating as going on a long drive at night with the love of your life. You can plan it on a rainy night or even when the skies are clear. Soft music, some fast food, a long route, cool breeze and the two of you - sounds fantastic, doesn’t it?
5. Take a Bubble Bath
Too tired to go out and enjoy yourselves? No problem! Learn how to plan a date night at home that’s just as fun as one out in the town. Relax, unwind, and get intimate with a hot bubble bath infused with fragrant bath salts. Light a few candles, pop open a bottle of wine–or champagne if you’re feeling indulgent–and wait for your husband in nothing more than a sexy negligee. He’ll love your unique date night idea.
6. Go Bar-Hopping
If you and your partner love sampling new and interesting cocktails, why not make a date out of it in a different way? Instead of spending time at one bar, pick three or four and experience what they have to offer. If that sounds too much like work, visit a vineyard resort and take a relaxing walk through the extensive wine trails. End your night with a sample of the resort’s best wines and a sumptuous meal.
You now know what all you can do for a romantic date night. It doesn’t have to cost a bomb or take hours out of your time. There are great date night ideas for those of you who want to plan something without emptying your wallet as well as those who want to go out and make it big. Whichever you choose, you’ll love reconnecting with your partner and celebrating your love. Read more

What happens when you get a new job and you don’t understand what to do those initial days. That happened with me when my new project “baby gal” came into this world and i found Breastfeeding a bliss
Hello Mommies I am sure title might have given you enough idea about the intent behind but as it may looks it is not actually a bliss for lot of women including me.
A sudden C section plan after 12 hours labor pain. When she was borne i was the happiest person on this earth little did i know what waswaiting for me on the other fence. She was given to me after 9 hours and breastfeeding never came in my mind
while i was pregnant though i always knew that i am going to breastfeed my baby but it never feltlike one of "The most important part of parenting" The struggle to make her latch and the struggle to pop out the nipple was like I never faced
even in my board exams. Thoseintitial 3-4 days looked like on job training to me where i washanded over a new project and iam being monitored for the performance. At that time I understood thatyour boobs become public propertyonce
you give birth. My Mom in law ,sister doctor eveybody was pressing it asif they aretheirown.
Days passed and I finally was able to do it properly but another task was long sitting despite having stitches. At time I used to cry when people used to judge is she giving Formula why? Not having enough milk try this try that! I was giving alternate

How To Tame your Frizzy Mane This Summer
What is frizzy hair if not a lion’s mane! Fussing with your locks every morning can be frustrating but with a few easy frizzy hair tips, every day can turn out to be a good hair day. The art of battling the frizz is easier to learn than you thought.
Endless summer days can play havoc with your hair. You look into a mirror and you could very well be staring at a lioness! It’s okay if you’re looking to sport an afro, but if you want to control frizzy hair, try out some of these simple tips.
How to Make Frizzy Hair Smooth in Summer
1. Moisturise Your Locks
Moisturise hair using a conditioner to keep it smooth and less frizzy. After all, conditioning is one of the all-time summer care tips for frizzy hair. Your tresses need protection from humidity and a good conditioner forms a protective layer over your strands to keep frizz out.
2. Coat it with a Serum
If you find that a conditioner isn’t doing the job, use a serum on damp hair. It’s also cheaper compared to expensive frizzy hair treatments at the salon. Just don't apply it directly to your scalp as that’ll cause your hair to look oily.
3. Pat it Dry
Towelling hair dry is unavoidable but you must do it right. Gently squeeze out excess water and pat your hair dry to prevent outer hair cuticles from being aggravated and frizzy. A better way to dry hair is to use a lint-free towel as it’s gentler and works wonders in reducing annoying flyaways.
4. Don’t Overdo The Shampoo
The heat and sweat of summer can make you want to wash your hair everyday but overdoing certainly won’t help your cause. Too much shampooing strips hair of its vital oils leaving it more susceptible to frizzing. Washing hair two to three times a week is enough to keep it healthy.
5. Use a Wide-Toothed Comb
In your struggle to fight frizz, remember the best time to comb your hair is when it’s a little damp. After you’re done with the serum application, run a wide-toothed comb through it. It’ll detangle hair and reduce breakage. Once it’s dry, you can use a soft brush or your fingers to smoothen your hair.
6. Take The Natural Way Out
One of the best remedies for frizzy hair in summer is to stay away from the blow dryer and other heat styling tools. You don’t want your hair becoming any drier than it already is. Allowing it to air dry will keep the moisture locked in and your tresses less frizzy.
7. If You Can’t Fight it, Embrace it
If you’ve got a mop that defies every anti-frizz remedy, don’t sweat it. The messy look is always in! Just tie your hair into a bun or a ponytail with a few strands falling to frame your face. You can also try a messy half updo with a few studded bobby pins to add style.
If not properly cared for, frizzy hair can turn out to be a nightmare. However, these frizzy hair tips should help you be the envy among everyone breaking their heads over frizz! With some maintenance and a few tools, you’ll soon be asking what frizzy hair even is. Read more
