I was looking at Baby Peace's vagina the other day, and looking at that precious area between her vagina and "that other hole", and I thought, "Oh, what can I do to make sure the maternity care system in this country is better by the time Peace is old enough to have babies of her own so she won't be subjected to any unwanted / unnecessary episiotomies." (I had just read about somebody's unwanted episiotomy, which is why I was thinking about this in the first place.)
But then the thought came to my mind that there is a maternity care system in this country that is better right now... they're called HOMEBIRTH MIDWIVES. There is probably less than a 1% chance that any daughter of mine will give birth in a hospital, so I can rest assured that my little baby's perineum will be treated with care and respect.
