Was your c section dignified?

Pregnant second time round and considering how I want to give birth. Anyone who has had a planned or emergency c section I would love to know tour experience. One question I feel like I can’t get the answer to anywhere is- is the whole theatre milling around in view when you get your catheter put in?
Rhe midwife told me “no one will be watching for the sake of it” but I still left with a question mark. In your experience, did you get covered while that was happening and did the theatre team stay at the other side of the room to protect your dignity or did they not bother?

thank you

Second I specified no students.

(Then felt terribly guilty as the anaesthetist student was a local mother who’s daughter was in the same class as my first . 😬)
