I am 37w1 day with twin girls. We have a scheduled C section on Dec 15th but the babies can come really at any time now. I’ve been so strong this whole pregnancy and very optimistic about everything. But lately I’ve been hearing more horror stories about C sections than happy ones.. like the other day this woman I don’t know got to talking to me about the twins and I told her I had to get a c section because baby B is breech and she starts going on and on about how they aren’t safe and how she knows someone who got paralyzed for life and many other terrifying possibilities. I got pretty angry and walked away because who does that??! She could see I was already hesitant to share my story with yet another stranger just to be nice and then she wants to strike fear into me... it’s not just her though, I’ve been feeling uneasy about everything lately and I don’t want to feel this way. I want to be excited and ready but every time I start to get excited the “what if’s” pop into my brain. My hubby has been super supportive and reassuring through everything and I couldn’t ask for a better partner.. but I still get scared no matter what!!! 😞😥

ALSO, people love to tell me how insanely terrible the recovery is going to be as if I had a choice but to get a c section. I get people are trying to warn me but damn.
