Hm. I donno but a while back I read some medical journal article where a woman's vaginal muscles sort of collapsed due to too much pressure forcing it open, and the woman in this case, had done the stretching pretty slowly, if I recall. She lost control of her bladder and bowels, and her vaginal walls and sex was then, if not impossible, awful for her. I can't really remember all the details. If I were you, I'd google this topic quite a bit and I'd ALSO consult with a couple medical professionals on this matter. It seems like a lot to risk when bit of research and effort (and money, drs aren't free, but how much would you pay to NOT have that happen to your body- I'd definitely pay much much more than a couple dr visits) any way... it all could save you from a catastrophy.
Okay, since I was so vague and foggy I did a bit of my own research and- am I glad I did! First of all I had to weed through many fake medical articles that were ads really for this one product--- frustrating, but not impossible.
The phrase I was looking for to describe that above article was "Pelvic Organ Prolapse"... here is a link to a women's health org. in london discussing in detail prolapses and how they are caused. Here is another link to causes of prolapses, from the same pamphlet. And on another site they discuss it saying "frequent straining can be contributing factors"... But the gist of it is that any over stretching can cause the different kinds of prolapes, and they include natural childbirth, since it is apparently effecting a large percent of the female population to varying degrees... So does that mean its really dangerous or bad for you? I think it honestly could be. And now, more than ever, I'd consult with a doctor. And I'd bring your Dom along (if you felt comfortable) to hear what the doctor has to say. Does that mean you should wholly stop? I probably wouldn't, but I would slow things down a bit until I had assessed the risks and could make a really thoughtful, informed decision. One the positive side, the third site I am linking you to says: "A woman with prolapse but no symptoms may be urged to practice Kegel exercises to reduce the chance that her condition will progress. Kegel exercises are a series of contractions that strengthen the pelvic floor. You squeeze two sets of pelvic floor muscles at the same time: those you would use to prevent yourself from passing gas and those you would tighten to stop urinating. Avoid contracting your stomach muscles. Try to do 30–40 pelvic contractions each day; you may want to divide them into three or four groups of 10 each, spread throughout the day. Squeeze and hold the contraction for 3–5 seconds; then rest for the same length of time. Build up to 10-second contractions, with 10 seconds of rest in between." So maybe exercising them now could help avoid weakening those muscles from the stretching that you are currently consenting to. (But I'm not a doctor, I'm merely infering, you should ask a medical professional about all of this, I reiterate)
