Massaging perineum?
Don't know if I spelt that right, but I'm terrified of tearing again, I tore with my son and recovery was worse than my whole pregnancy and labor. I've heard to massage your hole with almond oil, or primrose, but can anyone tell me the correct way to do it, how often and the best method?? And do you feel like it worked for you?
Idk if I wanna YouTube that, lol soo is it easier to do yourself or have your partner do?
Ive done a lot of research on it they suuggest starting to do the massage at 36 weeks and its really hard to understand how its done by reading I looked up a video on youtube and it shows you how to do it from what I read it reduces tearing by 10%
