No. It depends on how the birth goes, a lot of people need stitches as the have some damage to the labia and most commonly the perineum. If the midwives/doctors think you need it, you can have an episiotomy which is a small cut allowing more room for the head to come through, then being easier to sew up and heal then if you were to rip.

Water baths with a few drops of lavender is supposed to be brilliant for healing after-birth stitches. Also air circulation once able to.
