c section mamas... what happens?

Rachael
I'm on baby number 4. Never had a c section and honestly I wouldn't like one if unnecessary but I've always been curious... what happens? Do u feel any pain during the surgery? After baby is out then what?. I know I can google this but I want genuine experiences to hear. I am always seeing debates on what is more painful c sections or vaginal delivery... obviously as I've only ever had vaginal I say vaginal birth is more painful but quicker recovery and easier recovery.. but I would like to be educated on exactly what happens with c sections. tia xx
