If you have a natural delivery, you should also cut it horizontally. Because the trimming is neat and easy to sew, it is about 4-6 stitches wide when contracting, and there is no pain at all. If it is a natural tear, the wound is uneven and difficult to sew. After healing, the wound is even more unsightly, with good delivery and quick recovery. Side cutting is not terrible, but it hurts a little when sewing. Fortunately, after a few stitches, I can bear it. The baby is too big to come out, and the doctor will do a side cut to let the baby give birth smoothly, but the pain at that time could not be felt, because the attention was absent and it didn't feel very painful.
The perineum of primipara is tight, and there are often different degrees of tearing during childbirth. In order to prevent irregular perineal tear and anal injury, so as not to bring pain to the parturient in the future, the perineum of the parturient is cut a little, which not only avoids perineal injury, but also makes the cut wound neat, easy to sew, well closed and fast to heal. It usually takes 3 to 5 days to remove the stitches, and there will be no sequelae.
In the auxiliary operation, such as forceps or fetal aspiration, in order to facilitate the operation and prevent perineal tear, most of them need to cut the perineum. If there is fetal asphyxia during delivery, in order to deliver the fetus quickly, most of them need to cut the perineum. Although the fetus is very small at the time of premature delivery, in order to avoid damaging the delicate fetus, the perineum must also be cut. Perineal incision can shorten the delivery time, reduce pelvic floor tissue relaxation, and reduce postpartum vaginal wall bulging and uterine prolapse. Of course, episiotomy is carried out according to the specific situation. If the fetus is small, the perineum tissue is slack, and the midwife can properly protect the perineum, there is no need to cut it.
