Judgement about elected C-section

Has anyone else experienced this? I'm currently 16 weeks pregnant with my second and have chosen to have an elected C-section.

I had a really traumatic vaginal birth with my first (pretty sure my husband has PTSD from it) and a couple of years after that I had a stem cell transplant for a rare blood disease. I have been told I don't medically need one but my midwife is very supportive and says I can basically have the birth I want.

Everyone I tell this to though just keeps asking why, if you don't need one then why and then bringing up the current UK C-section statistics. It's driving me mad and I feel so judged.

Help needed

Hello mummas,

So I've just had an emergency c section on Sunday.

It wasn't what I wanted but I had no other choice. My body is in bits, all I want to do is be with baby but I physically can't do anything other than breast feed her 😩.

What did you ladies do to speed up recovery??

Baby rolls

My little one just did her first roll from her belly to back, it made a thump between her feet hitting and her head slightly hit. I messaged doctors also but she didn’t cry or anything. Just a little panicked.
