To try to not tear? No other reason. Am pg with #2 and ds came very quickly and MW thinks this one will be even quicker.
If this birth goes anything like ds i think hiring/buying a birth pool will be a waste. The minutes contractions started they didnt stop so was in agony till i gave birth. Couldnt even get changed when got to the hosp (at 8-9cm!!) this time round im planning a home birth so i know that would be diff as id already be there but cant work out wether its worth getting one just to try not to tear as ive read its supposed to help prevent it? Tore quite badly with ds with nasty stitches and was in agony for months...
