I had my son naturally and also had no pain relief just nitrous oxide and i was thinking about having a c section because of all the problems i had with him.I was in labour 15 hrs then induced then forceps and a tear 2nd degree and getting stitched for over 1 hour.I heard that once you have scarred tissue the skin does not stretch is that true as i was hoping next time i might only get maybe 5 sutures max.Because if the skin does not stretch then i would tear or have to have an epesiotomy is that right ?

One last thing, my bestfriend was told she was going to have a little girl. She wanted to know so she could get a head start on shopping for the baby. Well, as it turns out her little girl was a boy, and she was stuck trying to return all those dresses and pink sheet. I would say if you find out and they tell you it's a boy, then they are likely right, but if they say it's a girl, be careful, b/c maybe, just maybe they missed something.

Congrats, on your pregnancy and if you ever need any advice feel free to ask, I've had three kids. 2 c-sections and 1 natural. I've pretty much been through it all. Good luck and take care of yourself and you little one.
