Any mama's here do a perineal massage

to try to reduce tearing during birth and did it work for you? I wanna try it since my daughter is measuring bigger, the thought of tearing and painful urination for weeks after scare the hell out of me, so I’m trying to find ways to reduce tearing and wasn’t sure how reliable that would be. And can you do it yourself with a big Ole belly in the way? Lol

Yes and it worked for me. Both times. Only a stitch on top and one on bottom. And my boys had big heads lol.

So, my Dr did it with my first daughter and I had no tearing at all.
