Confused

Hey! So everyone has different stories, but I had an elective c section due to my daughter being breech and having gestational diabetes and it was actually a memorable and very positive experience. My husband worked early mornings and so I still had to do a lot of the taking care of my daughter alone. The recovery was faster than I expected and it wasn’t as painful as I thought it would be. I propped myself up on some pillows at night. I used some cooling pouches on my wound (above clothing) in the day. I would do it again in a heartbeat because I feel I got to enjoy my daughter more in those early days because my birth wasn’t traumatic.

Wishing you all the best. 😊

Everyone’s recovery is very different. As a plus size mum I struggled massively with recovery because of my size. But the section its self was great. Mine was planned as my daughter was breech. I did have to have a lot of help at home. I just had a bad experience, don’t worry and overthink the aftermath, the most important thing is getting your baby out safely and what you are happiest with

Had a planned csection and so glad i did, recovery was really easy and I was doing normal things a few days later and going out on walks like normal about day 5, I know everyone's experience is different though but honestly mine was amazing. The actual csection as well was so relaxed and calm

I did not want a c section, so I tried to deliver vaginally but than ended up needing a emergency c section which was way worse. I dont think doing a c section is taking the easy way out, I think you need to do whats best for you, baby and your body. If your more comfortable.with a c section than do it.
