I am delivering my first baby this month ..i am wondering will my vagina stay stretched & could my doctor perform an extra stitch ?

Dr. Zakia Dimassi Pediatrics
The vagina is still elastic enough after the delivery of the 1st baby delivery and usually reassumes its original shape and size within a few months time. If you are planning on conceiving again in the future, asking your obstetrician to perform a vaginoplasty (tightening the vagina by placing stitches) is not a good idea at this point in time; you may want to have this done once you are certain you are not planning on bearing more children.
