[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This has been such an interesting discussion and I really feel like I learned a lot from reading the pps stories. I googled levator avulsion and that brought up a lot more information on the topic as well as pelvic exercises and other research.

I had an incredibly simple vaginal birth with epidural. But I was looking for info like that while pregnant so I knew what to ask for and what to try to avoid. I'm pregnant again. I don't know how you avoid long pushing? When I dialated 10cm they told me to push. What should you do if you've been pushing for an hour and you don't know how much longer it will take?

I've worked with older women and my grandmas and great aunts were very candid. They all have pelvic floor issues. Some gave birth with forceps and most had twilight sleep. They all had multiple births. I'm an only child and my mom had me via c section- she has pelvic issues now in her 60s. [/quote]

My doctors had me on a 4 hour pushing limit.  I was 15 min away from getting a c section when my baby repositioned and came out![/quote]
