Ok, so I thought at 35 weeks I should start with the old perineal massage, especially as I have a huge birthing fear around this (previous episiotomy). On the second day, I was going for the burn with my olive oil and it really did sting, but I was under the impression this was supposed to happen.
When I had finished I noticed some blood, although couldn't locate exactly from where it came. It's still sore and I decided to have a night off tonight.
Anyone else had this? Am guessing I stretched too far too soon but if this is what my finger can do stretching a few cms, what is the baby's head going to do??!!
