Surely, that would be obvious that any midwife would only suture tears that are within her ability to do so whether they be whatever degree. of course the dr. suturing it would have many years of experience before he would attempt to suture a serious tear(tongue in cheek) Travelling to hospital

The only experience I have had of this is as the admitting midwife when a woman came in from a home birth with a 4th degree tear. She fed babe while waiting for OR, had the repair and went home again when she had recovered from the anaesthetic. As I saw her around town many times later I found

I wouldn't suture a 3rd or 4th degree tear at all - at home or in hospital for a number of reasons. A 3rd+ degree is not within my expertise and can lead to long term complications if not done properly. I would rather it was done by someone with expertise and experience in a well lit theatre.

Hi Jo It's really important that the fetal head does not enter the cavity of the pelvis too early, otherwise the bladder would be unable to fill and the rectum unable to hold onto the required amount of faecies. The connective tissues around the pelvic floor muscles do not soften until the last

Hi Sue, As you know, active third stage is not my usual way of 3rd stage "management". It would seem logical that if you are using IMI syntocinon, then you would need to wait until at least 2-4 minutes until the drug affects the uterus, then wait for a contraction and the fundus to become
