I could be over exaggerating but could someone take a look at this? my baby got spayed yesterday and it was over $500. she’s my emotional support rabbit and I can’t afford anything else.. it’s making me freak out. she’s eating, drinking, and her bowl movements are fine. she’s taking her meds and everything.

She might be chewing at it, but I can't tell from the photo if it's opened up or just a minor wound from messing with it too much. If it's completely open, she will have to be seen by the vet to get restitched. Maybe even tonight if it's really bad. If it's not open and just minor irritation or a small surface wound, I would keep her from messing with it anymore tonight, then tomorrow get another look at it and phone your vet if you're not sure if she needs to be seen.

how would i know if it’s completely opened up? will there be blood or behavior changes? the doctor told me she stitched it up and then glue it
 
You'll be able to see a completely different layer of tissue or muscle below the top layer of skin. It's pretty unmistakable when you see it. If you can't tell, then it might be fine and you could wait until morning when you can talk to your vet.
