Are there any creams or ointments that i can put on my vagina to stop it ripping in labour?

i am 5 months at the moment, and starting to think about the labour and if theres anythng i can use to prevent ripping or tearing in labourAre there any creams or ointments that i can put on my vagina to stop it ripping in labour?
I think some natural health professionals put different natural oils on there. Also, the traditional Indian medicine has some really neat ideas for childbirth. I think it's called Ayuveda (pretty sure that's a misspeling.) Any Indians who could help me with this one?Are there any creams or ointments that i can put on my vagina to stop it ripping in labour?
What the hell is the point of that? You made the decision to have a kid, and now you want to make it easier or more pleasant?


Is pregnancy entirely so inconvenient to you?





You'll never be the same again, and five months is too late to back out. Start preparing to give up at least the next 20 years of your life to your baby. And no one else is gonna' want your vagina as badly again, ';tear'; or ';no tear.';
unfortunetly for us, no there nothing you can do, that depends on the size of the baby and your size. some good advice though, try to grind down on your teeth if your doin it natural, its helps takes your focus on the pushing. but the better advice is: TAKE THE DRUGS!!! ripping and tearing wont even be a concern of yours
Your doctor will actually cut it if there isn't enough room for your child to come out. Of course your doctor will then sew it back up afterwards. It isn't very painful when they cut it. All I had before I gave birth was demerol. It doesn't take very long for it to heal up afterwards either. Good luck and congratulations.
Do perineal massage; look it up on mumsweb.com. It loosens the tissues of the perinium (The muscles between the vagina and rectum), gets them accustomed to the stretching that occurs during labour.
NOPE, there sure arent. Ripping and tearing depend largely of course on the size of the baby, as well as how fast labor progresses...size of pelvic outlet etc. Factors of which are largely out of your control.
Hi! I can't believe some people! You must be scared out of your wits with some of the answers you have received. You may not tear at all! I really wouldn't worry about things like that at this stage. Sit back relax and enjoy your pregnancy, the more worked up you get worrying the more chance you have of not relaxing into your labour. Honestly its the most wonderful thing in the world and any pain you may feel, will soon disappear, just think about the adorable child you will have when its all over. Good luck! for a rip free labour.
i dont think so
no, there aren't any of those kinds of things. But if the doctor needs to (and if it is your first baby) he will cut your vagina so it doesn't tear...it will be easier to sew up and the recovery takes less time, so I wouldn't worry about tearing.
it does help it u get some baby oil and massage your perineium twice daily, it can helo strech it so that u wont rip/tear during labour! i didnt know this untill after i gve birth :( try it thats all u can do!
don't use anything. if the baby is too big, the doctor will cut you a little to enable you to deliver the baby easier. don't worry, he will stitch you up after wards and you will be as good as new. YOU WON';T feel it, because they numb you up down there.
no u have to rip to have your baby
These days, the doctor will usually cut you with a scalpal on purpose. A clean, surgical cut heals much better than a forced tear/rip.
