Currently 10 weeks with #2. My DS was born by EMCS following a v traumatic failed induction and was in NNU for 3 days. I ended up with PND, all in all a pretty horrible experience.
To try and ward against the same thing happening again (unlikely I know, but hard to be rational about) I want an ELCS this time round and wondered if some others who had been in my situation could share their experiences. Did you have to fight for the CS? I've had an initial read of the NICE guidelines but they all seem geared towards first time mothers. I have my booking in on Monday so will be raising it then, but am worried that they'll try and refuse and make me have a VBAC.
