Has anyone heard of a device called the "Epi-no"? It is supposed to stretch
the perineum so one is less likely to need an episiotomy or to tear. My
sister's OB is trying to convince her she needs one, but it kinds of sounds
suspicious to me. I had always thought that it's more important to provide
compresses and stretching *during* labor to prevent tearing. The Epi-No isn't
cheap, either.

TIA!

Be well,
