Sorry if this is TMI, but if you had an episiotomy for your 1st did you also need one when you had your 2nd?

I had one and ended up tearing the rest of the way
With my second and third I did not need one but did tear a little.

Had one for #1 and tore more. Did not need one for #2 but did tear a bit and needed a few stitches but not nearly as bad as the first.

Had one for both, but it wasn't nearly as painful the second time. Not sure if that is because it wasn't as bad, I pushed less, or the doctor stitched me better, but whatever it was I wasn't in as much pain!

Yes, I had one with both. The first was definitely worse (it was 3rd degree). I'm not sure what degree the second was but it required much less stitching and recovery was a lot better.

Had one for both. First one was 3rd degree no idea what the second one was. Recovery for both was easy. I chalk it up to having an awesome doc Chat Icon

I had an episiotomy with my first and tore pretty badly. With my second (who was a pound and a half heavier!), I didn't have an episiotomy, but did have a very minor tear.
