Collapsed lung

Hello

Hope you’re all well

I’m 28 weeks now and starting to think about labour and delivery!

About 18 months ago I had a collapsed lung (spontaneous pneumothorax) for no apparent reason whatsoever. This was fixed and I’ve been fine since. I’m seeing a specialist soon who will advise if they think I should have an elective c-section - to avoid the possibility of it happening again whilst pushing in labour.

Probably a long shot but has anyone else experienced this?

Was really hoping for as little intervention as possible - although will of course ultimately do what is safest for me and baby

Thanks
