Re: [Everything doTERRA] Re: Preparing for Episiotomy

I think you are right on track with the oils but as far as episiotomy vs
tearing, you'll find everyone has a differing opinion. My first born I
had an episiotomy (and about 4" of stitches) and healed very quickly
with no pain, no nerve damage, happy as a clam. #2 was a different doc
who believed in tearing. It was horrible, took forever to heal, I was
miserable and it did extensive nerve damage. I might add this is an area
you do not want nerve damage. So I think it may just come down to the
doctor.
