Asking for Self, Female, 30 years old, Lahore

Please make this post anonymous and tag Dr riba baig. my first delivery 2.5 years ago was vaginal with child weight 3.1 kg. I got episiotomy tear of 3rd degree and lacerations in vaginal wall. Dr had to put gauze inside to stop bleeding. Stitches took 1 month to heal. There was difficulty in bowel control till 1 year. but after that I am fine with no related symptoms. Now I have second pregnancy of 36 week, should I go for elective c sec or vaginal delivery? Now my hb level is 10.6 and have mild thrombocytopenia as well as UTI. Kindly guide which mode of delivery will be safe considering my previous experience. Regards.

My Dr asked me to make decision by my own self. That's why I am getting opinions here. I am also from medical field, an ophthalmologist and really concerned about safest procedure.
In previous delivery, when my vagina was 10cm dilated, my doctor waited and asked me to push till half hour after that she did episiotomy, which makes second phase of labor prolong. I think this was the cause of lacerations and 3rd degree episiotomy.
Now My question is, can we prevent such tear this time by doing episiotomy earlier at 10cm dilation?
Regards

no episiotomy shouldn't be given early. it should be given when crowning occurs mean head of the baby stretches the perineum.

regarding your last delivery and its related complications it is in your best interest to get a c section done this time . as your symptoms are fine but there is a great chance if you go for a vaginal delivery this time you ll get it again .

we can give episiotomy only when baby head visible and it stretches the premium otherwise more chances to damages surrounding tissue including anal sphincter

as you had 3rd degree tear with bowel complaints ...next.better is c/s for you
