Hi ladies, two separate questions here.
I am only 9+2 so this is a theoretical question for next year!
I have had 2 C-Sections already and currently pregnant with DC3
DC1 was an emergency section under general anaesthetic, DC2 was a planned section with a spinal block (at the time had back issues and couldn't have an epidural).
I was almost certain that I was going to go in to labour very soon with DC2 - I had my section at 38 weeks and was already experiencing very strong Braxton hicks the day of my C-section.
I am worrying this time because I will be booked in for a C-Section - but what if baby comes early? What will happen?
Also as I now have a full lumbar spinal fusion, will they even be able to do the section under a spinal block (defo cannot have epidural?) or will this be a general anaesthetic again? (I hope not!)
Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
VBAC is not an option here.
