I'm having a planned c-section on the 28th.
I've just been sat sorting out my hospital bag and had a horrible realisation. My brothers 1 year death anniversary is on the 30th. I had totally separated these events in my head. One day will be the happiest day of my year, then 2 days later will be the saddest day of my year.
Only packing the hospital bag, I'm preparing for a 2 day stay at least. That means I'll be in hospital on the 1 year anniversary. And that is the very, very last place i want to be.
How likely is it I'll be able to have the section on the 28th and be out by the 29th, as long as everything goes smoothly? I had a very easy recovery after my emergency section with my son. C-section 6pm on the 12th, home by 9am on the 14th.
(of course, if there are issues I wouldn't put my health or that of my daughters at risk, and would suck it up and stay in. This is only in a 'everything goes well' scenario)
I've already pushed back this c-section date as much as I can. This is the last date the consultant said he'd do, and I had to put up a fight to get it. I'm not even sure how I'd go about requesting a sooner one now its all booked in and sorted. Plus, I'd feel like an absolute sodding idiot changing my mind just over a week before it.
So, would leaving the day after be possible, or is it definitely out of the question?
