I've got my next consultant appointment on 9th August (32 weeks) & I've been told that's when I have to give my final decision on wether I want a vaginal birth or a ceserean, but I don't know, obviously their are positives & negatives for both. I've spoken to DH & he's no help & I've done my research on both which absolutely terrified me!
I had to have an emergancey ceserean with DS & to this day the pain afterwards of the drain coming out of my stomach still makes me feel ill & I really wanted the chance to experience a natural birth this time.
However, I have serious concerns about a natural birth due to mental health issues which I fear will cause anxiety & distress not just for me but also for LO. There's also the matter of the possibility of DH being away when I go into labour resulting in me having to do it alone (there is no way anyone else is coming in with me, the only person I would even consider is my Nan & she will be looking after DS). But then there's the complications of having a second ceserean
Any advice?
