The dermoplast and Frida ice pads saved my ass (also literally lol)
A lot but I used to get a shower in a morning, use a peri bottle when having a wee, get in the shower after a poo and bath at the end of everyday until i was healed, to keep it all clean was so concerned about getting an infection (as i had one with my first child and stitches) Ice pads were amazing for pain. I didn't feel fully ok until about 14 weeks pp
@Monique Jose Duvall directly told not to hahaha

Are you using a sitz bath for your toilet? This is what I wanted to get for my last pregnancy, but I ended up with a c-section recovery instead.
