3rd Trimester

I dont want anyone seeing my "private areas" during birth...

When I had my other son 9 years ago, the doctor cut me from "A to B"....

However, when he sewed me back up, I feel he did somewhat of a sloppy job. I am even insecure about it with my husband.  I know theyre doctors and they "see it all" but that doesnt make me feel better.  There is too much skin there and a flabby piece of skin too sticking out from "point B" lol.  Sorry for the info I just want to know if you were cut during a previous pregnancy/birth, does your area.. particularly "B" look strange, is it normal?

Also, since I was cut before, does that mean they will automatically cut me again for this birth? 

 

I pooped during my last birth but could care less about that lol. Now THIS is embarrassing though!!! It has me secretly wishing I will just go into labor at home so quickly and it will be all over with besides a check up on me. I HATE hospitals anyway :( Women have been fine without them for trillions of years!

  • I was cut but as soon as my OB finished stitching DH took a look and said he couldn't even tell (my OB's great a stitching though, he honestly could probably do plastic surgery). Do you have a different OB this time? I don't think you would automaticall

  • Have you talked to your doc about how it looks?  I would've.  Regardless though, no one is there to scope out vags, they're focused on the baby.  DH watched the whole birth last time and before having DS, I would've thought I'd be really un

  • you know, i dont like the idea of being on display either. You can request to be covered up somewhat, and you dont have to deliver laying on your back. there are plenty of other delivering positions. They also have ways of helping women who have been sexu

  • my ob from then is dead now and I have a woman doc who I am much much much happier with. I wish I would have only seen women from the beginning its a totally different experience.   Never thought of asking them to fix it on up while theyre down there
  • I tore then was stitched up with DS1, then tore, was cut, tore some more then was stitched up with DS2 and my junk still looks approximately the same. Don't worry.
  • No one saw mine-my doc makes the bed at almost a 90 degree angle so you almost feel like your going to fall out lol and then places a cover over my knees for privacy. makes me feel so much better and gravity isn't working against me. I also had a 4th degr

  • My B side looks like something out of a horror movie. The word "protruding" comes to mind. I also had a sloppy stitch job on top of ending up with prolapsed vaginal walls.

    I've talked to my current OB (e different one than last time) and he said

  • I gave birth to my 2nd baby at home- was not planned that way. Needless to say I was alone and it was 4 am and I had been in back labor. baby 1 was an early c-section so I did not know I was in labor, thought my back pains were due to working a lot. I

  • Not sure what you want people to say.... sorry?

    During L&D obviously you kind of have no choice but to lose all sense of modesty and dignity.   Plus they've seen it all, and really don't give a crap what your vagina or a**hole look like.

  • I tore from A to B with both previous births. When you are in labor and in that much pain I really didn't care who was there watching.  The entire world could have been watching and I wouldn't have known the difference because i was focused on what I
