36 weeks and considering requesting a home birth over elective section

[indigo_fairy]

Wow, if anyone has to have a CS that is pretty much as good as it can get not rushed, quiet, baby taken slowly (not ripped out) and able to see the birth of baby, skin to skin straight away and not away from mum for long. I wish mine could have been more like that, don't think I'd have been as traumatised as I was and still am actually. I really like all those medical staff, why can't they all be like that!

Just to let you all know i ended up having my section. When i looked into the facts it would have been too much of a risk for me to do anything else. It wasn't straight forward at all but compared to Poppy's birth it was an amazingly positive experience for me and i'm a very happy lady.

Thanks for all the advice ladies. Here is my birth story if anyone fancies a peek...

Wheeeeee I've been waiting for news!

Hope you're both doing well sweetie!

Glad to hear that despite not everything going to textbook it sounds like you got a birth rather than a delivery.

Happy healing hun, I'm sure you perk up soon enough and your family will be happy.

Always good to hear a positive CS story.
