Hi, I'm new here but I have just found out I'm expecting my second child and I was hoping for some advice. I live in London and had an extremely bad experience of my first labour which was natural. For me to be able to feel relaxed about this pregnancy I really need to feel like I can have an elective c-section. My GP is extremely supportive and is trying to get me into St Thomas' although I have been warned it's unlikely. We are in SE London so my local trust is ruled out after last time. Please can anyone advise me of any London hospitals that will actually follow the NICE guidelines and offer an elective c-section on request? I know you have to go through the rigmorole of seeing a counsellor etc first in order to get it. My most likely option of hospital is King's College.
Thanks in advance :-)
