Off for my CS tomorrow. Please send lots of no-pain-be-home-by-Friday type vibes please.

I hate being in hospital because it's so bloody boring, but on the upside, it does give me a few days where I don't have to vacuum/wash up etc. I'm also going to enjot tomorrow morning, when I can lie in bed and read trashy magazines without being interrupted with poo fiascos and constant demands for drink/food (I have to be in at 8am, and they do the CS in the aftrenoon)

Anyway, will I be in loads of pain afterwards? I had an emergency CS with DS, and I can't really remember what happened for the next six months, as I was on another planet!!

EEEEK, starting to shit myself now........

Sounds v tempting.

Might ring DP up at work, and plant the seed in his mind. He can't resist nice food.

And you'll have no pain and you'll be home by Friday - there I've said it !! DD "played" at having a baby yesterday pm - lay on the sofa and asked me to cut the baby out of her tummy !!

IGW - are you near me in Bristol?

Rofl, YIAM, bless her. She is lovely!

Right, DS has awoken from his nap, so I am away. I will be back on Friday (hopefully)

Thanks for the advice everyone!

EEEKK!

Flossam, I live in Weston in Bath, so I'm on the Brizzle side. Whereabout in Bristol are you?

Kingswood - so not too far at all - off to RUH then? Ohh how exciting! Good luck - maybe when you are settled we could meet in bath for a coffee? Hope all goes well for you!

Post-op pain relief is brilliant, IGW, honestly. I had less than great post-section experiences but none of them was to do with pain relief. Voltarol is the tops.
Am swooning with horror at bundle whipping out her own catheter though .
Best of luck, enforce the take-it-easy rule afterwards and I bet all will be fine!

Hi
have not read all the thread - seems to involve lots of dif. foods.
I had emerg cs - took weeks to recover. Then had a planned cs - which was wonderful; dreamlike . complete control, suoer fast recovery and no side effects.

enjoy the morning off, and enjoy your baby!
good luck, good vibes!

Flossam, we will do that!!!

Right then, am deffo off now

Flossam - I met IGW and her DS yesterday in Bath for a chat and coffee - so when she is out of the RUH and we arrange another meet - please, please join us !!

Thanks YIM and IGW - sounds like a plan! Tues and Fri's are the days I am most off and free atm - start a thread when you are able!

Had a Emergency C-sectiuon with my last and can't say I found it that painful...granted more painful as my previous 2 natural Births, but was expecting much worse...and as I was breastfeeding I didn't take much for painrelief neither....but go by how you feel, cos there is no point in suffering with pain!
Hope all goes well!

my first two sections were in ruh but my last was swindon now seven months ago, suppositories helped this time, i was back on school run driving 9 days later, check with your insurance company though, good luck, i cant believe it was seven months ago i was feeling that too, hope they have you down early who is your consultant - porter or dunster

Good luck!

Look forward to hearing from you

Good Luck!

Urgh, can't bloody sleep...

Dunster is my consultant, buktus. He's very nice, but he barks at you. V sergeant majorish.

he was mine with my first two - good luck

Wonder how she is??
I think she was told it would be some time this afternoon !!

IGW, hope it has gone well and you are a mummy again now
Hurry home, feeling like a little fairy

bath like keeping you waiting, they are a knightmare!
