I had a bad tear first time round and was told in follow up I could have an elec c-sec next time if I wanted.
Neither option appeals. The incontinence I suffered after the first time, if it were to happen again and be permanent would just be hideous. But then a c-sec is major surgery not without risks either.
Anyone know any stats on bad tear first time and what happens with subsequent births?
Anyone had this problem before and what did you do??
Thanks!
