Hi, I'm thinking of having a C section. I've been suffering with considerable anxiety about the birth (my first). Both my Mum (pre eclampsia) and sister had traumatic births and I have low PAPPA. The last consultant I saw was very unsupportive. Didn't give me any information just made me feel lazy and like a wimp and tried to talk me out of it. Who's had a caesarean and how was it for you? Straightforward? Did you feel safe? Did it take you long to recover? How long did you stay in hospital afterwards? Giving birth for the first time is scary enough without the medics making you feel bad! I'd appreciate your stories (not judgement). Thanks.
