Some women become anxious as they count down to their due date. They become concerned and ask their healthcare provider: Will I be loose after having a baby?
The truth is that not all women become “loose” after having a vaginal delivery, only a very few do.
This depends on a number of factors such as the circumstances of your vaginal delivery.
That is to say whether or not you have prolonged labor, traumatic labor experience leading to tearing, whether or not there is a disproportion between your baby’s presenting part and your birth canal (i.e cephalopelvic disproportion), delivering a big baby per vagina, and so on.
Most normal vaginal delivery doesn’t affect the architecture of your vagina long-term.
You can expect your husband to point out that he does not feel anything during sex with you after childbirth.

Determining factors
The extent of vagina stretching occurring during childbirth differs from one person to another. Some of the factors that determine the extent are highlighted below:
- The size of the fetus or baby at the point of delivery
- It can also be genetic
- Those who do pelvic floor exercises when they are pregnant will not experience too loose vagina after childbirth unlike those that do not. This is because pelvic floor exercises can help to get the muscles in that area toned adequately to prepare you for childbirth.
- Those who have protracted delivery periods are also usually subject to a very loose vagina after childbirth. The use of instruments like vacuum extractor or forceps can equally make the vagina to be loose after childbirth.
- The number of vaginal delivery you have had can determine how stretched the virginal wall muscles will be. If this is your first birth, your vaginal muscles will not stretch as much as those who have had more deliveries than you.
No matter how stretched your vagina has become due to childbirth, the problem can be successfully reversed and you can get your tight vag back after some time.
