I am in the early days of pregnancy with dc2.
I have requested to be referred to a consultant, due to a traumatic birth after being induced last time. I have spoken to two midwives, who both said that, if I requested a c-section, they would think it was fair enough. Obviously they can't tell me if the consultant will agre or not, so who knows?
I am considering whether to go ahead and request a cs, or to say I would be happy with a vb, but refuse an induction in favour of cs? It particular I would not agree to having the hormone drip again.
I will obviously discuss all this when I see the consultant, but wondered if anyone else has planned to do this and what the reaction from the consultant / HCPs was please.
Any advice greatly appreciated.
