Help, feeling nervous about C-section

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

Hi everyone, I’m hoping to hear positive stories about scheduled C-sections. I’m having one because of a previous traumatic vaginal birth with third-degree tears and post-partum hemorrhage.

Does anyone have any words of encouragement? I’m worried about the surgery itself and the recovery. I have never had any type of surgery before.
