Have any of you mamas suffered from a 4th degree tear during the birth of your children?
Yes but mine went the other way… I tore up 
Yes. I gave birth a month ago. Only needed ibuprofen 800mg twice a day for a few days, and then once a day for a few days. Main thing is resting and not over doing anything. And do NOT do any lifting heavier than your baby. I made that mistake 2 weeks after birth, trying to put baby and carseat in my SUV and felt like I took 10 steps back in recovery.
