So, for medical reasons to do with my DD i am strongly considering asking for a c section. Well aware i may be denied though.
But i want to know from those who have had them, how hard it is looking after a one year old during the recovery? Dh would be home for two weeks and family and friends could help after that. And how long is the average hospital stay? DD won't even have milk from anyone but me (ff) which is v annoying and becoming difficult now as i enter my third trimester.
I would ask how hard it would be with a one year old who has all the problems she has but i doubt anyone could answer that... she can't sit or even hold her head up properly and is incredibly dependant on me. She isn't a heavy child (19b at 9 months) but is long (96th) and as i say, can't do anything for herself just yet.
Her neurologist said that labour may have caused her energy failure which could have contributed to her condition which I have latched on to as the main cause and this has me a little worried and I would do anything for it not to happen again. It could have nothing to do with it but she is so unknown its all guess work...
also, my worst fear is having a catheter inserted? Please tell me thats not the worst part?
I am blabbering but any advice would be great before i ask the consultant on Tuesday.
