Quoting the grace life:" Yea, it was so easy with him. Yea, my stitches were insane...I was a jigsaw puzzle after having my daughter. "

I hope I'll get lucky with my next then   ahhhh stitches down below sounds so scary, I would have been more scared of that than labour lol

Quoting Mara:" it shouldn't be. women should only push when they feel like pushing. if done beforehand it can take ages or end w/ medical intervention. "

the woman I was photographing was a week over due and was induced. I thinke she pushed so long because her body just wasn't ready to have a baby.

That is absolutely what I think happened in my case. I listened to the doctors, couldn't feel anything from my epi, and it was a mess.

Yea. It was pretty bad. They almost took me to the operating room to finish it up. Thankfully, they did not have to. I still have "seams" in a few areas from it. With my son, I only had like 10. It was EASY.

i had not realized our labors were pretty similar! i had 7 or 8 stitches with my daughter and it was a breeze. She even said she thought that had it not been for all the scar tissue i would have probably not tore at all with her
