I feel for you, my wife suffered a 4degree tear after a episiotomy,
the first repair was poor and need to be repaired 6mths later, you
talk about urine incontinence do you suffer fecal incontinence? bearing
in mind that it may only be a spot of urine/fecal. From personal experance
you most talk to your partner and support him and he must support you.
its was 1year for me and my wife before we could even think about sex. hope
it gets better
