39 weeks & baby girl decided to flip feet down 2 days ago. If she’s still breech on Monday I have to schedule a c section. I’m not worried about the recovery since my last delivery resulted in a severe complex 3rd degree vaginal tear. If I can handle that I can handle anything lmao. Just nervous and uneducated about the process & if something goes wrong.

The first 2.5 days were really painful. I couldn't get out of bed and had a catheter. From then on, the pain was fine. With some movements and overexertion, you have noticed it, but you should spare yourself. I wish you all the best! 🌺

I had my c section at 4am by 6pm I was walking... not the best but I was up and out the bed slowly. The faster you get up and get moving the better. Yea I was in pain but it wasnt the end of the world kinda pain. I just suggest you rest after the procedure if you can so you can get moving sooner than later. Many blessings on your delivery 😇

Can you schedule a ecv and if baby gets head down from that can do induction right after and if not c section?
Recovery is tough honestly. Worst I have ever felt in my life. Yes the quick your up walking the better but it was tough and being alone was hard. I got left alone and couldn’t put baby down safe and fast enough and couldn’t get up without it hurting and peed myself and cried. If able see if ecv is possible ! Once you have c section doctors try to always make you a c section.

Overall, I rank it a positive experience. A lot of people say planned sections are “so calm and relaxing.” I completely disagree. I felt like a cow going into slaughter. Bright lights. So many people. Spinal made me feel out of body. Terrible itching and vomiting after. BUT. It was planned. Everything was expected. Baby came quick. Recovery was doable.

Who the hell commented and then blocked me? 😂 what I do?
