Hi ladies
Thought I'd start this thread for those of us who will be having our babies via c section (whatever the reason) as a way of supporting each other and suggesting ways of preparing and recovering from the op. I've already had a section (EMCS) with DD and unless monkey comes before Tuesday then I'll be having a repeat section, this time scheduled though, so hopefully get to experience my LO being delivered rather than be under a general.
The main thing I'm worried about is being away from my DD for two nights - never left her overnight before . Still, my mum is coming up to stay to look after her and OH will be with her when he's not with me and our new arrival.
Right now, I'm feeling a bit odd. It's strange knowing your delivery date and I'm beginning to worry about how baby 2 will fit in, whether or not our DD will be OK with it all. I'm trying to stay calm and relaxed. Going to get some arnica tomorrow to start taking to help with recovery.
So, for those of you facing a CS - how do you feel, what are your concerns and do you have any advice for others?
Look forward to hearing your views x
