DH came home from work and said that he'd been discussing this with his mate (why?!) and that the friend said that his wife had refused an episiotomy and ended up with an EMCS mid way through the birth.
The reasoning was that the skin would never, ever heal properly and would be prone to opening for the rest of her life.
Don't want to scare myself with Dr Google, so any opinions on this please? I want to make an informed decision!
Thanks!
