Hi everyone I have an elective csection booked in for two and a half weeks time. Has anyone else got one booked around the same time. How are you filling your time. I have a nearly three year old that’s keeping me busy. I had an emergency C-section with her so this is all a new experience but im excited !

Ah I do! In exactly 3 weeks. Still at work, but am feeling vv nervous all of a sudden. Had a traumatic emergency section last time (have 4 year old now) so all that fear is coming back a bit. Hoping for a much calmer experience this time round

Me too! Two weeks yesterday for me! I'm still working as well and I have a two year old. I'm definitely at the nesting stage but I just don't have the time for sorting and cleaning etc and it's stressing me out!My previous emergency section was very chilled and was such a lovely experience.. I hope this one is similar!

Tomorrow I find out my induction date.. for 38w, which is 16 days away 😱 it doesn't feel real!

@Thetractorjustmoved @juleypooly when are you working until. I used some holiday so have had one or two weeks off but now at a loss of what to do.
@GoT1904 how exciting I’m hoping it all goes quickly between now and your induction

I'm working up to the Friday before my Wednesday section. I didn't want to be sitting around waiting for too long. I went way over with my first! But think I'd appreciate being off now.

I just found out my date only yesterday - 6 more sleeps to go! 😄
