First ever post on here... bare with me! lol
Really just needing to know....
I had my first child by elective section as he was breach... Had spinal block and while on the table went into shock as wasn't expecting to feel everything! -mid wives had told me I'd feel nothing... When in fact I would feel it all just no pain.
I began being sick and became very itchy so they sedated me and I don't remember a thing after that until I was in recovery with my partner and DS.
We are thinking of trying for baby no2 at the end of the year but watching all these episodes of OBEM is filling me with so much fear!
I know I can ask for another c section, i think id much prefer this than natural birth, even with epidural the thought of maybe needing forceps or ventouse puts me off the idea of being pregnant again (selfish I know).
Does anyone know if I can request to be sedated before they cut me? I'm not sure i can handle feeling it all again..
I know I probably sound like such a wimp to you all!
Any advice on second c sections or even VBAC muchy appreciated :)
Thank you xx
