After having a 4th degree tear & a long recovery with my first son i am now 37 weeks with baby no2. I saw consultant yesterday who has advised I have a c section this time as she is scared of what happened last time happening again & me being very ill afterwards again as I'm having another large baby.
How bad is an elective section really? I'm just terrified of the whole thing.

Thank you so much to everyone of you who took time to comment on this. All your comments have been a great help and a relief. After a few days to get my head around it I'm actually beginning to get excited again. Can't wait to meet him/her now??
Thank you all again x
