I've been pretty much dead set on a planned section since before I fell pregnant, consultant has agreed it in principle as a maternal request there is no medical need for it, however the last month pretty much since they agreed it I've been wondering if I do actually want a section.
My first I was induced loads of intervention ending in forceps, an episiotomy and 2 second degree tears. I'm not a great healer and am prone to infections, I didn't heal properly and had 2 infections, had to go back to fix some stitching with local anathetic which was horrendous this all lead me to think I want a section. There has been no lasting damage (4 years later) apart from mentally I'm wondering if I'm putting myself through a major OP through fear instead of for the right reasons now.
