[quote=Anonymous]Man, i had a second degree tear and my OB was basically acting like it was no big deal (I was in a very bad pushing position, on my tailbone - awful). Anyway, I never did look. I had a TON of pain though. I thought birth itself was really easy and the tearing didn't even really hurt, but the actual recovery was awful. I hear you often tear along the same fault lines but I'd like to avoid that if I can this time. I had some granulation tissue develop, which was really hard. If you can, OP, take a bath (in a very clean tub rinsed very well of any of the cleaners). When my OB okay'd baths was when my recovery really turned around. It made a big difference. Good luck! Due in a few weeks and not looking forward to this again. And btw, I never looked! [/quote]
