As per the title, has anyone had a 3rd degree tear with one birth but still choose to have a vaginal birth, as opposed to caesarean, for a subsequent delivery?
With DC1 I suffered a 3B tear.. Was not ideal, to say the least luckily I recovered well and no serious long term damage. Now we're TTC DC2 and looking ahead at birthing options. The only person who I know who that happened to had an ELCS for their next birth, and said the recovery was so much better!
I'm just torn with what to do and hoping some real-life experiences might help
