Experiences with

Caesarean section

I am a new poster but an old lurker. I was dx Stage 4 16 years ago with Bone Mets and told I had 6 months to 2 years to live.

Hello, I won't go into my (many) symptoms but I'm wondering if anyone can help. I'm on 50mcg Levo for Hashis and have been for 5 months, GP won't increase it.

Hey everyone I don’t really write on here much but for everyone who’s been commenting to me when iv needed it, just wanted to say I had my gorgeous little boy on the 6/6/19.

Hi everyone We are booked in for a C-section in a couple of weeks as our baby is measuring small and they want to deliver at 37 weeks.

Today our little miracle Ethan Edward was born 7 and a half weeks early by emergency c section at 22.07 last night.

Hey all, I’m now 21+6 after second ivf cycle. I had a really good 20 week scan & all is healthy which is fab. The thing that surprised me though, is that I’ve been recommended to have induction at 40weeks if baby hasn’t shown signs of arriving. I think I’m feeling a bit sad that I’ll have less chance

I've read enough of the horror stories of unsedated endoscopies. Wish I hadn't but they are so easy to find. I want to hear the unsedated experiences that were not horrible. I am a small 33yo female with anxiety disorder BUT my anxiety for this upcoming procedure is only about being sedated, It stems

Hi Friends- 13 years ago I was diagnosed with Antiphospholipid Antibody Syndrome after I miscarried 3 times. Once pregnant for the 4th time, I was on Lovenox injections, baby aspirin and later the Lovenox was replaced with Heparin up until about 7 days before my C-section. Perfect, yet high risk pregnancy

Montgomery’s evidence was that, if she had been advised of the risks by her doctor, she would have chosen to have her baby by caesarean section. The Health Board accepted that, had Sam been born by caesarean section, he would have been unharmed.
