[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. A few more facts: I will have at most three kids, so this is either my last or second to last pregnancy. My recovery from my first birth/tear was fast, easy, and uneventful. I would prefer that outcome to even a scheduled c-section, just for the purpose of avoiding abdominal surgery. My fear is that the injury this time could be worse. I am not opposed to c-sections on principle at all. My baby last time was pretty average size - 7 lbs 11 oz with an average head.[/quote] New poster here. OP, this was pretty much my exact situation. Had a third degree tear with the first, but a pretty easy recovery. With my second, I think (it's all a blur) I had another third degree tear (I know they had to stitch me up). Second baby came pretty quickly compared to first (was induced with first, but not with second). Again, after second, my recovery was pretty easy (no major horror stories like you sometimes hear).[/quote]
