I had a c-section four years ago. My son was breach and big. It went great. The spinal did hurt but it was quick, it was weird being strapped to a table and I could feel the tugging but no pain. My doctor used glue on my scar and it looks great. I scar easy and heal slowly but it has disappeared in many areas.
The only thing I sometimes feel cheated that I did not feel what labor was like and can't relate to friends of mine. But you know what that is ok, because i didn't have to deal with being ripped open or anything like that.
