Elective c-section

Is anyone opting for a c-section? My first birth was quite traumatic for me and my husband so I’m edging more towards a c-section but to be honest, just birth in general this time is terrifying me 😫

I have opted for a c section due to anxiety ☺️

i went in to be induced and after it failed the first time i just asked for a c-section. the whole experience was so calm and chilled and baby was born perfect and healthy. The only hard part is the recovery, it’s not easy. Not being able to move and help out with your own baby on the first days/nights it’s tough but i’m 11 days on now and basically back to normal! just have a bit of cabin fever about not being able to drive for ages

@Kate with my first I was unable to help for the first couple of days due to being in theatre for his birth and having the spinal block etc then a funny turn needing a blood transfusion! But it sounds like your C-section was a good choice and I am edging more towards that but my brain just thinks the worse of every situation 😫😫
