Hi,
I'm 37 weeks pregnant with my first child. I've been reading a lot
about episiotomies, and how bad they are. The thing is, now I am more
afraid of having to have an epistiotomy than of labor itslef.
My question is : Are epistiotomies really that bad? Is it really more
painful, slower to heal, painful sex after it forever? Aren't there any
positive points in an episisiotomy, do some people have it with no
problems? Or is it medically proven that they are that horrbile?
