      <image:title>Blog - What if i need stitches after birth?</image:title>
      <image:caption>This concern is one of the top “What ifs” that I run into as a doula. And here’s the low down. You might need stitches. I’m sorry. It’s actually a lot more common than you might think. The American College of Obstetrics and Gynecology (ACOG) states that 53-79% of women need tissue repair after a vaginal birth. Flipping those stats around, it’s actually less common to NOT tear than it is to tear. There are many solid ways to prevent tearing (check out this article for more info), and having a doula on hand to help with position changes and breathing is a huge help. Today, we’re going to dive into the recovery. First, we need to understand the types of tears.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - What if i need stitches after birth?</image:title>
      <image:caption>Here are my top tips for recovering from stitches: Use a peri bottle. It is your best friend. The last thing you want to do is put a lot of pressure on newly sutured and very sensitive skin. When using the restroom, rinse your vulva off with warm water (no soap!) and then pat dry very gently with toilet paper or a clean towel. Don’t wipe—you could tug on your stitches. Sitz baths are your other best friend. Soaking your bottom in warm water will help keep the area clean and soothe that sore skin. Bonus if you throw in some epsom salts and/or herbs. There are lots of fabulous recipes around the internet for herbal sitz baths, or you can ask your doctor or midwife if they have a recommendation. Dermoplast is a topical numbing spray that is used for burns or skin wounds. Spray your vulva liberally before using the bathroom. Urine is sterile, but can still sting when you’ve just had sutures.</image:caption>

      <image:title>Blog - How doulas and partners work together: guest post by dr. abigail jorgensen - One of my very favorite people in the birth world is Dr. Abigail Jorgensen, known online as Abby the Sociologist Doula. She is a birth and bereavement doula, an assistant professor of sociology, the author of A Catholic Guide to Miscarriage, Stillbirth and Infant Loss, and founder of Haven Bereavement Doulas. I’m currently enrolled in Haven Bereavement Doula training, and getting to spend two hours via zoom with her every week has been pretty amazing.
