Nervous for scheduled C-section

Heather • Mother to one boy, three babies with wings, pregnant for the fifth time

I have a scheduled C-section on a Thursday, April 19. It will be my first C-section and I’m really nervous. My last birth was vaginal with third-degree tears, postpartum hemorrhage and blood transfusion and left me traumatized. Can anyone tell me what to expect or anything that will help me feel less scared?
