Tears

[visitor1]

Ouch, ouch, ouch. I has a 2nd degree tear that went 'up' not 'down'- four stitches, one that was directly next to my clitoris, and a catheter for 24 hours. I'm not so much scared of tearing, but I am sacred of tearing in the same place.

What are the chances of that? Do you tear in the same place twice? (sorry Kim I'm hijacking your thread here for a sec )

With all 3 babies i tore in the exact same spot!

Hmmm I was unlucky! I got a 3rd degree internal tear that was the worst part of my birthing experience... everything else was great!!!
They were stitching me up for quite some time too.... i was silly and looked at my V after they stitched it up... i shouldnt have looked

I really hope i dont tear so badly next time if at all, because i went drug-free it was HORRIFIC pain!!!
