Elective C section maternal choice

Anyone got any positive stories? Opted for an elective C as opposed to an induction but worried I’ve made the wrong choice. Just want baby out safely

Am I missing anything

🇬🇧From the UK 🇬🇧 I’m 22 weeks and I’m trying to help my overthinking brain by working out what I want to take to hospital with me. This is just things for me, baby and dad will come after! Am I missing anything, anything you have had recommended to you that isn’t on this list?

I know makeup/skincare are not necessary but it will just make me feel better if I want to spruce myself up a little!

Induction Friday

Hello, I’ve been booked in for an induction on Friday and they want to use the Rods and if that doesn’t work after 24 hours then they’ll try the hormone drip.

For those who’ve had induction, did you stay in hospital from start to baby being here?

How long after rods/drip did the ball start rolling?

Thank you 😊

Post c-section

Almost 5 weeks post partum and my tummy is starting to feel really bruised on the inside. Feels like I’ve pulled every single muscle in there. Anyone else experienced this?
