didn't do it at all, thought about it but chose not to worry about it.
labour was 5 hours. DD was 8lb13oz. just tore, had 5 stitches in and 5 stitches out but seriously, didn't feel a thing, was too much on a high and didn't even notice him stitching me up until the last minute, even then, didn't feel it. didn't have epi, just gas.
i didn't get stretch marks though so maybe i have stretchy skin?
healed really well and FAST! i think the thought of tearing is what freaks us out but it was definately not bad here and i had 10 stitches!
