    Did you have a lot of swelling when you first got the nerve up to feel around inside? After my post op visit the following day mine was swollen and dry. My doc told me to put coconut oil on the Vaginal opening for dryness. They said the ridges won’t ever go away but the texture will get smooth eventually. Have you found this true? What was your worst scare? I know I stuck my finger up there and it feels like a big chunk has separated but I think it’s only swelling.

      No problem with dryness and I had a big chuck as well but it smoothen out after 8 weeks. Still have a little pain because the deep stitches are dissolving...
