Thank you so much for helping to put my mind at ease. I had no idea
whether a tear like this could mend or not and hearing that it can makes
me feel so much better. I was only told to rest, not bed rest. But, I
think I will upgrade myself to bed rest for a few days. Do you have any
idea how long it took to mend?
Congrats on your 2 yr. old!
