Read somewhere it helps avoid tearing during delivery and im 34 weeks now so thinking of starting. Honestly thoda awkward feeling but want to try. Can someone tell how exactly to do it and from which week?
Haha, while I am busy dreaming about hot samosas and gulab jamun, my doctor told me to start this massage! I use cold-pressed coconut oil after my evening snack. It feels weird but hopefully it works!
I have been reading about perineal massage online and honestly it sounds a bit scary! Is it really necessary to do it? Let me know if anyone here actually did it and if it helped.
You can start this around the 34th week using organic coconut oil or olive oil. Just use gentle stretch motions, but please ask your gynac first to ensure you don't have any infection or complications that make it risky.
Humare yahan toh pehle glass me thoda nariyal tel lekar ungli se dhere-dhere massage karne ko bolte hain. Just do it after bath, it helps a lot during delivery. Ask your doctor didi once how to do it correctly.
It can feel a bit awkward at first, but it really helps your muscles prepare. Use a safe oil like pure coconut oil and just be very gentle. You are doing great, mama, don't feel nervous about it.
