I am booked for an ELCS today and was told at the pre op that there's always a chance that it could be cancelled on the day, due to emergencies or complications with other patients. I totally get this and appreciate that in those circumstances there's nothing they can do about it and just to roll with it.
But as I've barely slept thinning about it, it's obviously playing on my mind.
So i was just wondering how common this is - if this has happened to you at what point in the day did they let you know you'd have to go home and under what circumstances? Were you then first on the list the next day?
For context, I'm apparently last on the PM list as it is so I just feel like if anyone is at risk of being cancelled it'd be me (if everyone else was pushed back). I'm also just anxious as we've managed to get 2 days childcare for DD 3yrs and so I worry that if it's delayed it won't be that easy to rearrange!
Thanks!
