3rd c section in two days time and so anxious!

[Lefmry]

So despite already having had two c sections before I am still finding myself so terrified of the third one that’s upcoming. My second one was only last January and it absolutely was a positive experience during the actual c section it was just the hospital stay afterwards that ruined it.

Can I hear some positive stories from mums who’ve had c sections recently? I feel like I’ve forgotten what happens a little, I’m incredibly needle phobic and I can’t remember if the spinal needle hurts or not! Argh.

I had three - the last was the fastest and only took 30 min :) The anaesthetic they inject before the spinal needle goes in is a little stingy/annoying, but then it’s just very heavy pressure and an annoying cracking sound as they go through the spinal ligaments.

Good luck!
