To ask if you have crohns or colitis and had a c section?

I'm 32+4 and am strongly considering a c section because of health problems that have arisen in this pregnancy.

I've been hitting a brick wall trying to get information or advice from my midwives, but one doctor I spoke to said she doesn't recommend a c section because the recovery time could be much longer because of my condition.

Haven't had a chance to speak to my consultant about it yet.

Has anyone here had a c section despite having an IBD and gestational diabetes? And if so, how was your recovery? Do you regret it?

Hi, we're moving this thread over to our Autoimmune Disease topic, as requested and giving it a bump to get it back into Active Conversations - hopefully some Mumsnetters will be along soon with some advice and support.

Sorry you're going through a difficult and worrying time, Pixiefringe. Hope the rest of your pregnancy goes smoothly. Flowers
