[quote=Anonymous]I had a mild second degree tear the first time, which healed pretty quickly and didn’t feel like a big issue. No tearing at all the second or third times and I realized how much of a difference it makes not to have stitches right after birth. FWIW, my first came flying out all at once (after her head finally straightened out, haha), the other two I could take my time in pushing and let things stretch out. I had midwives (at a hospital) for all three, so I know they were actively trying to prevent tearing, since the births were uneventful.[/quote]
