I seriously need all of your opinions.
My doctor is leaving it up to me to decide whether to have a C-Section or to Try and have babygirl naturally when it comes to that time.
NOW, here's my story short and sweet:
When I had my daughter, it was alot of trouble and a VERY scary day for me.
I tried to go naturally but it didn't work out that way.
My daughters umbilical cord was stunted and was too short for her to move down like she should have, resulting in it restricting at her heart and she flat lined... I had to be rushed into an emergency c-section...
They got her out in time and was able to save her... BUT they almost couldn't save me. I remember everything fading out and my body going numb (the remainder that wasn't affected by the anesthesia).
They lost me and couldn't bring me back for almost 4 hours.
It was honestly the scariest day of my life... to know that I died and almost didn't come back. I have to decide on what I want to do, knowing that if I try to have her naturally I'm at higher risk of blood loss and other complications, possibly even death, but then knowing that I actually died with my C-Section... it scares me to death to have another one.
I am honestly stumped on what to do because I want to make sure that I have a safe delivery for both my child and myself. It makes me so emotional and want to cry. I tried to talk to my fiance about it and he said its up to me... he wants me to try natural but there's risks scare me..
I know I should not be scared of childbirth because it's a beautiful thing but because of having such a horrible experience with my first child... I'm lost.
I really need help deciding.
What are you ladies opinions?
I just want both of us to be safe and I want to still be in this world for my children...

Wow I can't even imagine what going through that was like. I would talk to your doctor and make the decision based on what is going to be the absolute safest option. Yes natural childbirth is a wonderful, beautiful thing but what matters is that you both are safe!

I completely understand where your coming from! I had my daughter vaginally, then started hemmoraging. I almost didn't make it either. And I'm absolutely terrified it's going to happen again! I think about it every day.
Trust me its less anxiety and at least its more calm the next time around. I promise you.
I had an emergency c-section with my first child also. And bc of that I chose a c-section with the rest of my children.
Maybe because it was an emergency last time they rushed and that's why you had complications? If its planned and they are able to do things more slowly you won't have the complications again. That is how I would try and look at it.
Neither of them give me a calm feeling I'm freaking out. I'd rather the doctors decide for me. It's too much for me to decide on my own... lol.
No pregnancy is ever the same. No labor, even for moms with multiples, is ever the same. But you never want your labor to be something your terrified of, or terrified to remember. Do what you feel is safe. Do what gives you a relaxing and calming feeling. Stay positive mama. 🌸☀️💚✌🏼️
but maybe if it's not an emergency c section there will be less complications
Thanks ladies. I feel like the c-section is probably the safest way to go. But my past experience is just throwing me off a bit. I've never had such a difficult decision in my life.
personally I'd opt for c section. after already having one prior trying to go naturally makes any risk even greater.
That's 100% ur call on what you want to do but as a possible repeat c section mom myself u have 2 look at everything & talk them over with ur dr 5001 things could go right or wrong that's what alot of ppl don't understand but if it was my call & it's not I would say c section again bc things r more under control on the inside uk
I know that must have been terrifying but look at it this way if u do have a c section it wont be rushed or it wont be an emergency it will all be planned so everyone will be better prepared even you....but its up to u whatever you decide to do i pray its a way better experience than your first
That's what I'm leaning towards but I'm absolutely petrified of it... I know I have a while to decide but it literally makes me shake from nerves just thinking about it.
