Trauma after an emergency c section?

Question

Has anyone else had an emergency c section? Where there was no other option as your baby would have died ??? I feel so traumatised by it. I’m just wondering if anyone else does? I didn’t get to hold my baby or see her until she was 6 hours old as she was too poorly . Is it normal to cry over the experience 6 weeks later ?

Answer

I was messed up for 2 months. Not going to lie. Seeing my friends give birth naturally made me cry. 
But it did get better! I'm still a little sad. Noe that I'm pregnant with my second, its easier! 
Plus we have a cool scar! My fiancé is totally jealous because I'm tougher then him. So now he's trying to catch up but can't because he'll never be as cool.

Answer

Yes totally normal to feel that way! You are not alone.

Answer
