I gave birth to my little boy 2 years ago, it was a very traumatic birth and I said for a year and half I could never have anymore children because of it.
To cut a long labour short, my baby got into distress, I was rushed into another room, completely out of it on pethidine and the next thing I knew there was a doctor and 6 others in the room trying to get him out. They apparently didn't have time to get me for a c section.
They tried the suction cup thing twice and then it ended up with cutting me and using forceps. I also tore too. I lost a lot of blood as well.
I was in so so much pain for a week afterwards that I couldn't sit down for a good few days.
The health visitor originally said after that labour, it would be likely they'd give me a c section if I had another.
Well, now I'm pregnant with my 2nd (planned!) I have my booking in appointment next week with the midwife but just wondering anyone's experiences?
