[quote=Anonymous]Anecdotal story...my dear friend had a 3rd degree tear with her first baby in Germany, but she didn’t know/understand the medical implication at the time. She was an American newly wed in her husband’s country. For her second birth, the hospital here, received her records AFTER she already delivered with no tears, a healthy full term baby...and her doctor came in and told her on day 2pp if he had seen her chart he would have recommended a c-section, but clearly she didn’t need it. She went on to have four kids total, and the last one was a c-section. Better for her body and her family planning overall to have had those three vaginal births and 1 c-birth than to have attempted 3+ surgeries. [/quote]
