Hi Netty
This is from one of my posts a few weeks ago. I hope it is useful

To help reduce the chances of tearing there are a few tricks you can try.
Perineal massage- For a few weeks before the birth, at least a couple of time a day insert a couple of fingers into your vagina and stretch it until you feel a burning sensation and hold it there for a minute or so. In theory this I supposed to make the tissue around your vagina more elastic.


If you need any more advice just let me know
