I don't know if it's just me or not , but by me being a FTM & being that im so young I literally sent myself into an anxiety attack omw to have my emergency c section done. I went to the hospital with contractions 8 mins apart even though my doctor requested me to stay home another hour. When I got to the hospital they told me that my water had broken and I didn't even know it , about 1 1/2 hours later I was fully dilated and was told to prepare myself to push. Not even 1 minute later my baby girls heart rate dropped from 117 to 59 & I was told i had to get an emergency c section. I didn't have time to be drugged bc her heart was crashing & I felt them cut into me and push her out. When I came to I instantly broke down bc if I would have waited any longer like my doctor requested, my daughter would have been dead. Idk if it was motherly instincts or just pure luck but I'm so thankful I listened to my gut feelings & not my doctor. #sorryINeededToVent
Thank you @carlitojrmami @angiek , and what made it worse my doctor wasn't even there to deliver the baby after being called 3 times . It's really a shame how much doctors neglect their patients these days
Thank God your baby is ok! I definitely think it was motherly instinct...what a thing to through. Praying for a speedy recovery for you & health of your baby!@kattyjay
What is it like to have a c-section? I was told by my doctor I would likely have one so I am kinda nervous.😯😯
To the momma's that have had Cesarean's before, planned or emergency, my doctor told me that I have no choice in this matter, regardless of why my first was a C-section, I was planning on a C-section anyway but now I have no choice. This is discouraging, not only do I have to have a C-section but I have to have it a week before my due date for no reason.
So now I'm not even allowed to choose my date.
I should have a say in major surgery on my body.
Not only did I get told this but they a...
I have never been insulted this much by a doctor. I switched because I want to attempt a vbac and my midwife couldn't do it. He told me since I had a c-section it would lower my chances to almost impossible for my vbac. He also told me if I gain more than 20lbs this pregnancy they won't even deliver me at the hospital in town and I would be turned down even if I went into emergency. I felt like crying I bawled my eyes out in the car. My old ob back it Chicago would've never said that to me! She ...

I was told my belly is very high up for 33 weeks.. And because of it I might have a c-section 😔😔 I told her I still have 7 weeks don't Jinx me. I'm all for c-sections if it's an emergency and have no other options.. But I want to push this baby out... What do you ladies think..
My doctor told me I have severe preeclampsia😔😔😔 now I'm scared💔 I hope Leah is born healthy🌸 and I hope I deliver her with no complications😔
@kattyjay I agree. I'm lucky to be delivering at Duke. They have a team of several doctors & meet with all of them. You are guaranteed it will be one of them.
