C section mums.
Looking for some advice please about anything I should know / prepare for. Recommendations for anything you may of had or used. I don’t want to hear about detailed experience of the surgery as I’m trying to not look into it too much.. Suffer with my MH in general so after a traumatic labour I am opting for this year 2nd time round. Did anyone else find having a planned section helped them mentally in the postpartum stage? Thanks for reading x

I found C section so much more relaxed than natural. It was so smooth. The only thing is the healing afterwards. Your off your feet for a week in my opinion. Pack antihystimines. Takes so long to prescribe and the spinal can make you itchy Xx
Best thing i did 1 emergency and 2 planned, you get to make a music list for when youre there. They talk you through what they’re doing but yeah if I could id deffo have another section x
It was definitely more relaxed having a planned C section and the fact that I more or less knew what I was doing the second time round helped with postpartum stage. Spinal block definitely makes you itchy x
