@whispershospital: Many people hear about an episiotomy but don’t really know what it means. 🤰🏽 An episiotomy is a small surgical cut made during childbirth to help widen the vaginal opening when the baby needs to come out quickly or safely. It’s not done routinely anymore and only happens when medically necessary to protect the mother and baby. If you’re pregnant or planning to be, it’s important to learn about all possible delivery procedures so you can make informed decisions about your birth plan. 💕 #suture #pregnancyjourney #ChildbirthAwareness #SafeDelivery #deliveryvideo
