Will be getting my 2nd c section and scared help ?

[Babyjune21]

Was looking for advice or reassurance from people that have had more than one c section ? I’m due my 2nd baby in may via c section just like my first ! But I’m scared Iv been reading things that say you are 50% more likely to die in your 2nd c section than you were in your first ? Is this true !? I’m 5 stone heavier than I was when I was got pregnant and I’m quite over weight as soon as I found out I was pregnant I put myself on a diet and tried to work out more I’m not sure what else to do to calm my nerves every where I look it tells me how deadly c section can be ! I never looked the first time as my mental health was extremely bad and was told not to ?

I've got no advice except to say try not to worry!
Try to take statistics with an open mind.
Eg. (I'm making this up entirely and just using it to illustrate!) If the risk of death was 1% first time round and second time round it was 50% higher, that would be 1.5% which is still incredibly low.
It does not mean that there is a 50/50 chance you'll die!

After a c section, a second section is less risky than a VBAC, so you can reassure yourself that are taking the safer option.

However, the important thing to note is that that the risk of life threatening complications is very low for both.

I've had two emergency c sections and personally I found the second one so much less stressful - mainly because I was calmer and knew what to expect.

Just relax - you've got this!

My friend had 4 c sections, she is fine, i would also say has extra weight on her especially since her 1st.
I will more than likely will be having my 2nd c session this time (twins again) i think i would rather be put to sleep this time though haha.
Try not to worry, I'm sure everything will be fine

Iv had 2 sections and the 2nd was better than the first. You have nothing to worry about, relax urself and enjoy ur pregnancy. Iv just got a BFP so if all goes well il be having my third section end of June
