Here is my C-Section Story!! I'm sorry if it is kinda long
My whole pregnancy with my daughter had a few prob. Her due date was June 3rd, and altho NO one thought I would make it that far. June 3rd came & went =( By this time I was so ready for my daughter to get here. ( As I'm sure most mothers are)
I went to the doc the 3th, & choose to induce me on the 4th. I went in at 6:30 A.M, they got started at 7:00 A.M. But sadly, Nothing happy so they sent me home at 7:00 P.M
I was in labor from the 4th up until the 6th =( Around 12:00 A.M on the 6th, I started having contractions that was 3 min apart After getting to the hospital, they started having a heard time finding my daughters heart beat. & when they did find it, they would lose it with ever contraction I had =(
They then put a inner heart beat on to the top of her head. They found out that her heart beat was dropping fast and low with ever contraction I had!! (It went from being 175 to 97) that went on 3 times before I was told I was having a C-Section. I was so messed up from the meds, I don't remember my daughter being born =(
I'm pregnant with my 2ed child and is having a planed C-Section
Re: My C-Section Story :(
Agree with pp. I started feeling a ton of pain a few minutes after they started mine, that they put me out. So I wasn't even awake when my son came out. And I didn't get to meet him until the next day because he was sent to the NICU because it was a traumatic birth and was there during my whole stay, plus one day. And I didn't get to hold him until he was 3 days old. Sure, I miss not having pictures of him being born and the first family picture after he was cleaned up, but the fact that he survived the birth (barely) makes me grateful.
You can be upset, but don't focus on it. Focus on the good stuff and know that your next c-section will be a better experience because it will be scheduled and calmer.

Holy balls. What the hell were you doing having sex 2-3w post-surgery? Did your doctor fail to tell you that you're not supposed to have sex for 6 weeks? Or did you choose to not listen to the advice and went ahead and did it anyway? I have a feeling it's the latter and I'm looking forward to the answer I'm going to get here.
In case this is not MUD, I truly hope you have a healthy pregnancy, for your and your baby's sake. Being pregnant so soon is pretty effing dangerous. GL.
And I'll just ditto the above posters regarding your surgery experience. For a lot o women, ending in surgery is unexpected and full of unpleasant, blurry memories. I'm sorry your experience was bad. You'll get through it.
I am sorry that you had an upsetting experience the first time around. I will say that my second section went easier.
I will also say that I don't really remember meeting my girls either. Yes there are pictures, but the medicine really keeps me from really remember. It is what it is. You have to be safe and your child has to be safe.
I know many struggle with that. I wish for a happy healthy delivery and the experience that you are looking for
Same thing happened for me, except his head was stuck in the canal. And he coded for 30 seconds, not 2 minutes. But he was in the NICU for 5 days as well. I have no idea how long it took to stitch me up because I was out and DH was kicked out as soon as they knocked me out. I also can't even think about what could have happened...
