This birth is making me sad.

Zara1984 · 06/02/2013 21:45

I begged the mw for a GA section.....

SlinkyB · 06/02/2013 21:45

Opting for a GA?! Really?! How odd Confused

TwelveLeggedWalk · 06/02/2013 21:45

Based in the scant info from the programme, I thought "hmmmm, maybe the anger of the child and father are linked". I can understand the mum's concerns but all that man seems to care about is whether he can get any sleep tonight.

Poor woman - she really is scared isn't she.

richpersoninapoorpersonsbody · 06/02/2013 21:45

Really they stop for adverts t that point?!

eminemmerdale · 06/02/2013 21:46

bloke I meant.

legoqueen · 06/02/2013 21:46

Horrible to have a GA...sad

2cats222 · 06/02/2013 21:46

Argh bad time for ads

gregssausageroll · 06/02/2013 21:46

Adverts!

Zara1984 · 06/02/2013 21:47

Resuss scene making me cry, that is what happened to DS Sad Sad DH fainted where saw DS' little arms flailing in air fo chest compressions Sad Sad

PartyFops · 06/02/2013 21:47

Why break there, that's terrible! Grrr, it's made me cry! Sad

CecyHall · 06/02/2013 21:47

I know it must be awful to have bad previous birth experiences (and my first was pretty rubbish so I have a little experience) but I get the impression this lady could be quite competitive over who's had a worse time of childbirth.

oldraver · 06/02/2013 21:48

Mayan....I would think it being a GA thats why the eyes are taped I'm sure they would forego that with an epidural

GettingObsessive · 06/02/2013 21:48

I could make an exception for David Beckham though...

JamesAndTheGiantBanana · 06/02/2013 21:48

They always break at the dramatic bit, presumably to get us to keep watching. Hmm

CecyHall · 06/02/2013 21:48

Took me ages to right that post, programme moved on since I started

dubai71 · 06/02/2013 21:48

Oh my, 30 weeks pregnant with DC1 and never seen this programme before... Yikes, think I may have nightmares tonight!

DrRanj · 06/02/2013 21:49

That poor woman. She was petrified after what happened with her first two, and now her third birth is going to be full of horrible memories. I was so lucky that I was first on the list for my ELCS, but I think I would have been stressed if I'd had to wait all day, and then my spinal went wrong etc. Poor woman. I am not surprised her husband was angry. It is such a shame that they've had to have yet another poor experience.

Nicknamegrief · 06/02/2013 21:49

Thought it was meant to be a planned section... Anxious now.

Picturesinthefirelight · 06/02/2013 21:49

Why did they persuade that other woman to have an epidural - midwife was virtually convincing her she wouldn't cope without.

Hope cs baby is ok
