I was the opposite. I torn with the first and not the second. She was 2 lbs smaller. Delivery was much easier.

My 2nd baby was my first vaginal birth and I had no tears! yay. Except now I feel obligated not to tear with this baby either.

I don't have personal experience YET, but am praying to God i don't with DC #2.  I had a 4th degree tear/episiotomy w/DD.  God help me.  I have 2 friends who just had smaller 2nd babies, and minimal to NO tearing/cutting with the 2nd, so I am holding out hope. I hear a few ounces makes a world of difference.

I think she is referring to vaginal tearing not crying. Unless you feel obligated not to have tearing with this baby either then I am not sure how you are going to make that work.

I have an outside cat and an indoor dog.  Not sure what we're gonna do with this kid.  Depends if it pisses in the house.

I think if the third is the same size or smaller you should be fine. Also if he/she is not facing up.

Oh no, I meant I feel obligated to have no vaginal tearing. My vagina is counting on me. If I can do it once, I should be able to do it again right.
