Giving birth

Will you feel the tear below while giving birth? How about when the doctor is stitching you up? Please share your birth stories with me as am a first time mum and very nervous with no pain tolerance so not sure of what to expect

I did episiotomy and didn’t really feel the cut as contractions pain were greater since I didn’t use any pain relief. The stitching was painful for me as the doctor only came to stitch me up about 2hrs after delivery. But my case is because I am on subsidised route so no gynae was around to stitch me right after delivery. The recovery was alright, took me about 1 week for the stitches and uncomfortable feeling to be gone.

How is the pain like for stitching? And you have to wait in the delivery room for them until they came over to stitch?
