Morning all,
Just wanted some advice about my upcoming c sec. It's been booked for 9th nov. I have a fibroid which has stopped bubba from going head down or engaging in any way which has made my bump humungous!
I'm scared - the surgery whilst i'm awake scares me. The thought of feeling "tugging" sensations scares me. I cant really get my head around it.
I'm also mourning the fact I can't give birth naturally - i was planning on doing hypnobirthing and was really looking forward to that. When i see a tv show that has someone giving birth naturally on it, it makes me cry... I don't sit and feel sorry for myself or anything... I'm quite accepting as it's the safest option for me and bubba which is most important.
My DH is going to be by my side and we had discussed that my mum wouldn't be around initially - but that was when we thought I was giving birth naturally. Now, I really want my mum with me too... Is that strange?
Any c section tips or advice would be much appreciated. I honestly have never been so scared of anything in my entire life!
Thanks!
