Hospital changed my c section date:(

[Lndnmummy]

And I’m so worried. I know this is entirely irrational as it’s only one bloody day but I’m so gutted. It was meant to be on the 4th and Now it’s on the 5th. I’m terrified of going into natural labour. Terrified! And now I feel I don’t have a chance in hell to make it. My first was born at 37+2 so I’m so anxious I won’t make it. Please talk me down from this stooopid anxiety.

Firstly don't panic! In all likelihood you will make it one more day. If you were to go into labour would they do section as an emergency? This happened to my friend and she was taken straight into theatre as she explained she had an elective booked. Good luck x

Why are you so anxious about going into labour naturally? This happened to me - I'd been told to go in as soon as that happened (if it did) and they just did it as an emergency a few hours later. It was still all very calm and relaxed - emergency in name only!

If you think you are going into labour go straight to hospital. You will be treated as an emergency section.
It will be ok.
Try not to get stressed.

Thanks! It’s not about the date, I realise how irrational it is. It is about the change and the delivery and feeding and having a newborn and all these things. But I’m sure it will be fine❤️
