    Posted: 20 February 2013 at 11:09am
I am up to baby number three, and have had terrible tearing and needed epesiotomys
both times, I'm hoping to avoid it this time, but not confident, I have very quick births and dialate internally, 
but have to time for my body to externally prepare,
I remember reading about some creams and stuff designed to help prepare the perenium for birth,
think they kind of softened and conditioned the skin,
I mentally filed this info, but can't find it in my brain..
If any one has any ideas or info on products that may help it would be much appreciated

Have you tried the massaging technique that is often mentioned? I think its something that you need to do months ahead. I don't think its proven to work or not but I'm definately willing to try anything.

Weleda do a massage oil to help prepare the perineum for childbirth. I have no idea how well it works, but I'm happy with the other Weleda products I've tried.

Weleda Perineum Massage Oil

I've seen it at the local pharmacy.
