Hi, has anyone had a planned c-section after an emergency c-section and what are your thoughts on it??
2 1/2 years ago my son was born by emergency section after being in induced labour for 2 days. He was 8.3 lb and 2 weeks early. I only have narrow hips and I'm a little worried the reason he was stuck is because my pelvis couldn't do it. So if I go to full term or even over this time I'm sure baby will be even bigger. I have spoken to a friend of the family this wknd, who is midwife and she was shocked that I am only 24 weeks because of the size of bump. She actually looked concerned!! She knew the ordeal and stressful labour I went through last time that left me exhausted for over a week and she thinks I should definitely go for a planned section as she thinks this would be the safest option. Considering all the risks like rupturing etc. I just dont know what to do, I was planning to have a natural birth but I want to do what's safest for both of us!!
Has anyone experienced both an emergency and planned section? And how did they compare?
Thanks!!! Xxxx
