how to prevent embarrassing situation
"New York Jen" wrote in message .net... Stared? I mean, were you doing a whole Meg Ryan from "When Harry Met Sally"? How would they know? No way. I pretended not to notice, like maybe the lidocaine was strong enough for that. Don't think they bought it, though. Anyway, they were looking down there and working on the area, ya know? I was wide open. Don't know what they saw, but there was a definite pause and staring. |

how to prevent embarrassing situation
: : : The last time, I gave birth with no epi. I had a 4th degree tear.
They : : : injected lidocaine locally to stitch me up. They squirted water on me to : : : clean me up while the ob sewed. At that moment, I must have had the biggest : : : O in my life. Everyone was staring down there. I just pretended I didn't : : : : I don't get it. What's O. Bowel movement? Fart? Something else? : : : : : Larry, Larry, Larry. I think it's orgasm. : : Doh! Can I use the "it's Friday" excuse? I'l revise my previous comments to : just "kewl". NOW who's embarrassed?! LOL!!! ~Carol Ann |

how to prevent embarrassing situation
The last time, I gave birth with no epi. I had a 4th degree tear. They
injected lidocaine locally to stitch me up. They squirted water on me to clean me up while the ob sewed. At that moment, I must have had the biggest O in my life. Everyone was staring down there. I just pretended I didn't feel anything, but I knew they were all stopping for something, so they must have known. It was a shock to me, considering the damage that had just occurred. Anyway, I wonder how common this is, if the midwives or doulas here have ever noticed it or if any moms had ever had it happen to them. I hope it happens all the time, because it was so embarrassing. Anyway, I'm hoping not to tear this time, so no one will be staring down under for long after birth this time. Does anyone have any ideas how to keep this from happening again? You can't stop it from happening again at your next birth, but you can try not to be embarrassed by it. Think about it... you trust these people with reconstructing your groin so you can keep on peeing pooping and Oing in future, you'd trust them to intervene in some pretty serious and invasive ways if it is needed to save your life or your baby's life. I'd trust them not to be stressed by an accidental O. As far as preventing tearing... easy does it on the pushing if the baby isn't in distress, ask the midwife to slow you down if it looks like tearing. Talk to your midwife about birth positions that might reduce tearing. |
