Hi NewMommy!
I was also concerned with any future pregnancies with my fissure. I have never had a kid, but it is definitely a desire of mine in a few years (or whenever this fissure heals). I discussed it with my CRS, and he didn't seem very concerned with it. He said it's more of concern in third world countries where the healthcare might not be as good and you would be in labor, pushing longer. He said that labor here is a fairly faster compared to other countries, due to the drugs they can prescribe if they think you've been in labor too long. However, I think if you want to do an all-natural birth, it may be a different story without the use of drugs. Also, there's always C-section, if you are truly concerned. The bottom line for me is that I wouldn't want to birth a child WITH a fissure, and if LIS is going to potentially correct that, it's worth a shot. I hope this helps some. I know there have been a lot of concerns from younger females on this board, and I just wanted to share what my CRS had to say.
