Postpartum recovery

2017-12-29 18:56:21
I am 6 weeks postpartum. I had normal delivery with an episiotomy. I am still having discomfort and pain in the area while moving in certain positions and it's bleeding sometimes from the stitches especially when I tried to sit in squat position. How many days it will take for the episiotomy to heal completely?Since 2 weeks, I am having pain in urethra while urinating, today I noticed some bleeding from the urethra. Is it a cause for concern? Please let me know if I am healing normally.
