Im having an elective c section in 6 days and Im absolutely terrified!

I have chosen to have an elective c section due to having a lot more control over the situation and other factors but now I’m really panicking! Theres only two ways to get her out and they both seem terrible to me 😂. I haven’t ever had any surgery and i even put off going to the dentist or getting blood tests due to my fears.

Im not even sure what I’m looking for here but hopefully hearing some of your guys experiences might help ❤️

You will honestly be fine you won’t feel a thing while it’s happening just give your body time to heal and rest afterwards
I had an emergency c section I had the shakes but everyone is different I pray it goes well for you!

First congrats on your bubba🫶🏼 I’ve got a C-section in 3 days. First baby. Shitting myself also🤣 but it’ll be fine, they’ll talk you through everything idk if you’ve had your pre op yet but they were so lovely and answered any questions no matter how dumb they seemed and really calmed my nerves and reassured me and baby’s dad that things will go smoothly. X just think if I’m calm baby’s calm😌 x all the best🫶🏼

Any advice or tips for the second time around? I was really hoping I could have a VBAC but my dr said no and I’m honestly terrified to get sliced open again.

8 weeks and tests getting lighter

Hi im currently 8 weeks pregnant and ive noticed that my tests are becoming lighter, I know your going to tell me i shouldn't be testing 🙃 but ive had 4 missed misscarriges in the last couple of years so my anxiety is high! I had a scan at 6+3 with a heartbeat and a crl of 7mm. I just dont understand why the tests are becoming lighter. Its not the hook affect because ive tried to dilute and it becomes even lighter, I have noticed the tests are darker with 3rd wee of the day rather than fmu. Has anyone else experienced this and everything turned out to be okay? I cant help to feel this is going to turn into another missed miscarriage.
