Csection date

Did anyone have an elective section at the womens?

I'm over 37 weeks and still have no date, they said I'll get a phone call with a date but my question is how many days notice did you get? Hate not being able to plan childcare and worried it'll be left until last minute 🙃

I did for my first as she was breached. They booked me about a week before and I was 39 weeks 4 days when I had her x

Hey! I had a C-section there in July, they called me the day before 🥹 my midwife wasn’t happy and asking for the date every day ahead but it still didn’t move them forwards x

Hi , I had planned one in April I didn't recieve a date I was 39 weeks + midwife kept pushing for date got nowhere then I recieved a call in afternoon to say come in in the morning 😑 xx

OhmiGod! I was lucky then...because I explained my medical condition to the consultant and was given my c-section date at my 24th week consultation....i had my baby may this year. Goodluck xx

Induction?

Anyone been induced before? Was it more painful? Better than thought? Worse than thought? Worth it? Thoughts?

Induction or c section?

As a last resort, would you rather be induced or have a planned c section?

Really not liking the thought of being induced from people’s experiences I’ve read!

Has anyone ever had pain in the bone at the bottom of the lady area?

How I can only describe it is I feel like I have a fracture or the bone is broken right at the bottom of my vagina bone obviously don’t think it’s to the extent but that’s how it feels. I had it in my last pregnancy and the pain went few months postpartum now it’s back again with this pregnancy. These are the results that u e googled I think I may have the first one has anyone every had this or something similar

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Homebirth?

I am thinking I want a homebirth (second baby) for a few different reasons but my husband is very against it, he is worried about things going wrong and we are a 30 minute drive from the hospital. Has anyone been in a similar position and what did you end up doing? Any advice? 🙏
