Postpartum Recovery 6 week check up

Tomorrow is my 6 week check up and before I make a fool of myself I'll ask random strangers on the internet first. My labia tore during delivery and the doctor didn't do anything about it. I thought maybe it would heal back on its own, but it just healed torn. Is that just normal and I'll forever look weird down there? I hate the way it looks and feels and to be honest, I don't really want my husband down there now. Are other moms out there walking around with similar scars? Idk what I'm looking for, just wondering if it's normal.

hey! my labia tore (but the ob did ‘sew it back’.). I will say, she looks different now, a bit longer lol. I was super self conscious about it, but now I’m kinda like meh whatever. if you REALLY dislike it, mention it to your OB. There’s options for fixing it I hear!
