 Re: directed pushing, does it cause more perineal tearing? I think so, but because they now have scar tissue that won't stretch like normal peri tissue. Usually women who have torn/had an Episiotomy very often get cut again by the doctors. I think a lot of exercises and massage like what tracy mentioned, however, could still prevent another tear.

| Re: directed pushing, does it cause more perineal tearing? Very simplistic, but I think if it's gonna go, it's gonna go.
