Ooh, I'm feeling really traumatised by this! DD had meconium in her waters and cord wrapped around her neck, it makes you think about what could have happened

babyboo is lovely thanks...although she doesn't want to be put down today!

oooh, this c-section is bringing it all back...babyboo needed to be resuscitated apparently...i didn't find out till i was reading my notes afterwards

God, I think only 2.5 weeks from DD's birth is a bit too soon to be watching this. I'm glad I didn't watch it before though!

Oh, daisy, I didn't realise that. Is that common with a CS as they haven't had the fluid squeezed out by the birth canal? How scary.

I was watching the natural birth and talking about the risk and wondered how any body has a natural delivery, then I saw the section one with the cord

daisyandbabybootoo · 09/07/2007 21:23

i didn't...now i can understand what all the panic is about if theres meconium in your waters

bumper - it is common for c-section babies to have lots of fluid due to it not being squeezed out, which I didn't know until AFTER I'd had my section and spent what felt like a lifetime holding my breath to hear her cry for the first time.

new years eve. Already have one born by emerg c-section. Complicated birth. Tbh I am getting a better understanding. (that will be the nurse in me i guess). Pretty sure gabriel will be ok as this is a programme about amazing survival.
