Warning 🚨 TMI 🚨
So, with my first baby I tore up instead of down. I tore my inner labia up to my clit... I just had my second baby and tore up again!! I just gained the courage to look at myself and it looks awful. My labia look shredded😢 I cried. I was just wondering if anybody else has torn in this direction in labor because I have never heard of it ( but not like people talk about it lol) Anyway, I just wanted to know how common it was.

I tore down with my first. They didn't even think to offer an episiotomy. =\. Sorry you tore- that seems painful. I hope it heals for you!!!

@kimberlyyyy, they don't offer episiotomys because they don't want to cut further than you will tear.

Really @myangelfaith? But... Cutting is probably easier to heal from than tearing (I'm guessing). That's annoying.

@elenalee, i did not tear but for the future if you have another child do pernium massages with vitamin e and aloe baby oil. My husband did them for me because i couldn't reach and i didn't tear at all! i was so relieved i didn't because the thought of stiches down there sounded horrible. I'm sorry you tore so badly, i hope you heal quickly.

@kimberlyyyy, im not sure but i didn't tear at all so if they gave me an episiotomy it would have been useless.

Thank you @myangelfaith I will try that next time... When do you do the massage? In labor? Or before?

i started around 36 weeks i did it once a week but i read online you should do it once a day. Google Pernium massage.
