Confused young mom.

Am I wrong? My child’s father originally wanted me to have an abortion but that wasn’t an option knowing I found out at 6weeks and 3days. He always says it’s never too late.

Primrose oil... Yes or no?

Anyone else thinking of trying primrose oil up there to help soften cervix and prevent tearing? I’m thinking about starting this at 37 weeks but don’t know anyone personally who has tried this. Everyone I know who has had a baby vaginally has teared and it’s a huge fear of mine🥲
