Hi all, I'm about to have my 4th and final!! C section Thursday and I am getting really nervous! You would think I am used to it by now but I'm jot. I am also a bit worried because they will steriize me at the same time. I'm a wimp with pain as well :( I am excited to meet my baby but the overwhelming emotion is fear :(

Aw, it'll all be worth it when you have your little one there with you. Must be worrying being a fourth CS. I'm due to have a planned 2nd CS in november. My first was an emergency one so hoping it will be a calmer experience this time round. If you are anything like me, you'll have been wishing the time would hurry up and come round but I imagine the closer it gets the more the nerves will show. All the best for Thursday! Do you know if you're having a boy or girl?

I will be having my third section in October, it seems too long away and I am jealous of you for having yours so soon. But I know exactly how you feel, I sometimes wake up and think about it Shock.. Even though I had such a quick recovery last time, and it was all such a positive experience it still makes me nervous.

Best of luck on Thursday.

Have they gave you any reasurrance or advice after last time? The reason I am opting for a section is that i spent the best part of a day in labour without them getting me in to be checked then when they did had an emcs as the placenta had already ruptured. I know a CS is a serious op but i don't want a repeat of that happening either.

Only 2 sleeps to go for you! Congrats on your 4th boy. You will be an expert in all things boyish now. Just as well u r certain it's your last or you could end up with your very own football team lol.

Just realised I miscounted...one sleep! Can't imagine how you are feeling tonight. If you don't post before hand, good luck for tomorrow! Hoping it all goes smoothly for you :-)
