I reckon some doctors are just pure sadists
I was cut which I found worse than tearing as the scar never healed properly. I actually found male doctors were more sympathetic and caring than the female ones! On the birth of my second the episitomy scar tore (muscle never heals back properly if cut) I asked the male doctor for anaesthetic and he whipped out a spray! A quick spray on the area before sewing! that was all it took! The female doctor on the first was just like those women on French and Saunders "Stuff and nonsense women in the jungle give birth and tear blah blah" Hence my gynaecologists are from now on only male.

The midwife ignored our birth plan on child three and made a right old fuss about everything and made birth three quite miserable for us.

I get the impression that hospitals are obsessed with control, the midwife tried to make me lie down whilst giving birth on my back! even though it is well known to delay the labour! I told her no way I am sitting up but they really seem to want to control you!
