Moms who have had a planned repeat cesarean after an emergency cesarean the first time, can you please tell me the differences in your recovery?

@tamitam, They use your child’s umbilical cord to help close you up and insert a port that’s connected to a box that you’ll carry around in your pants pocket that will go off and alert them if an infection is detected. I healed so fast! feel wonderful already. 🤗 My Doctor is the only one at all of the hospitals near me that does this new method I’m so tuneful I switched to her.
@thawkins wow, I've never heard of it. I'm gonna have to find further research! I barely found anything online so far. I'm glad you're having a great experience with it.
@tamitam, I will inbox you some pics of it still attached to me! I went back a week after I left the hospital to have it removed.
My 1st was an emergency csection n my 2nd was a failed vbac. 3rd was planned n was sooo much better cos I wasn't so tired from being in labour before it n I recovered much faster.
^^ that’s why my midwife said you recover better too. Because your body hasn’t had the stress of going through labour
I had my emergency in 2014 and had my scheduled last June and the recovery is soo much worse I am still trying to recover. I have been having doctors appts every other week trying to them to repair my nerve. I wish I could of tried a vbac but my son my breech. I know things happen during surgery but it’s been awful!
Omg. I'm so sorry you had to experience that mama. I'm hoping you get well soon!
My doc is low in spirits about my vbac because his last one wasn't a successful attempt.
Had an emergency last October and my planned repeat almost a week ago.
I feel a bit more prepared as to what the pain will be and I know this time around to move more but honestly is feels the same, to me anyways and not in a positive way. But I've heard others have a way better recovery the second time around ❣️
Woah! You got Irish twins. That's so cool lol I am planning for a VBAC, but the way I've been feeling lately, I just wanna say forget it and go schedule my cesarean. I'm just NOT looking forward to the recovery at all and hoping somewhere down the line it could be easier, but I just doubt it.
C-section mommies,
What tips do you have for new moms who may need a scheduled c-section or end up having an emergency cesarean? How did you survive post-surgery? What helped you make it? We're working on a new article and want your feedback. 😁We'll add your replies to our post.
Thank you!

No judgements pls, but I am absolutely petrified of giving birth (and also extremely squeamish). My whole life I always said when I got pregnant, I would have a c-section. Well, now that it's almost time, I have no idea what to do 😭 I would really love to talk to mamas who've had a Cesarean by choice.. I don't have anyone in "real life" to talk to about this at all and it's really getting to me.
(*ALSO* I have a pretty large dermoid cyst on my ovary that they want to remove during a c-section i...
Moms,
We've seen lots of posts about moms trying to naturally induce labor quite early. If you are interested in this kind of information, you should seek the advice of a medical professional because every pregnancy is different. For educational purposes and without any judgement, here is what the March of Dimes states about babies born too early. We will also post this on our blog this weekend.
Babies born too early may have more health problems at birth and later in life than babies born lat...
Regardless of how you deliver your baby, C-section or vaginal, you are still a mother. Too many people have misconceptions about C-section moms. Some is unintentional but many of these uninformed comments can be quite offensive and hurtful. And they are completely missing the fact, that the most important thing is that both the mom and baby are healthy and happy.👶🏽
Here are six things you should not say to a C-section mom.
1️⃣ “Too bad you couldn’t have a normal birth.”
Many cesareans are perfor...
...my baby is in frank breech (photo in comments). Anyone ever delivered this way? I need some good mama vibes.
He can be born vaginally, but they have prepared me for the likelihood of a cesarean. So far it looks ok. BUT MY GOSH...ouch. This explains my slow dilation and 9 days of contractions. What an epic birth story he will have. My husband says he is already giving the world his bum to kiss. 😉😧
I have recovered so much easier this time! I did the new port method this time!🤗
