C-Section today - Hand Hold please!!

[littlemissminor]

Morning all,

As the title says, I am having my C-Section today. I have been an inpatient since Thursday having steroids etc (I am 37+5), and finally the day has come....

I don't actually know how I feel about it all though! I am obviously excited to meet him, but equally thought I would be a lot more nervous/scared than I am.... I almost feel numb? Has anyone ever had this? Is my brain maybe sub consciously blocking out my feelings?!

Anyway, any positive stories please? Thanks all!

Awwwww hope you're having lots of lovely baby cuddles!!!

Hope you managed to get your section xx

Here is is; after a bit of a rough time, our little Arthur, born 21:54 last night, weighing 8lb15!

Oh he’s lush Op! Congratulations x

Aww he's lovely! Well done OP, how are you feeling this morning? X

How exciting! I think as humans a lot of us ‘shut down’ if there’s something big to process; I know I certainly do with any surgery etc because it’s going into things anew. And this is a big big one! Fingers crossed for you and hope you’re taking it easy

Ah just seen update congratulations!

He’s gorgeous, congratulations!

Ahhhh delicious!!!

He is gorgeous! You’ve done so well and I hope you recover quickly!
