I've been having nightmares about things going wrong all kinds of things but i think my biggest hugeest fear is having to do an emergency c session or even being told before labor because I'm too small he's too big or what if he's breech and there's no choice omg there's a lot that could go wrong its overhelming i feel stupid worrying about every little thing
All your fears will fade away once you see your baby.
A c-section is major surgery. Stitches and all kinds of other stuff. And you don't hold the baby after...you're in the operating room. You can see the baby, but the environment must remain sterile, while they stitch you up.....etc....
Vaginal is better cause you will have quicker recovery & your milk seems to come better qty but a c-section is longer recovery & my milk didn't come as much even though I pumped freq & feed freq.
Much pain you may feel or not . . . You forget it quickly after you hold your newborn.
if i think about it all for too long that's how i start feeling its knowing u are going to go thru the most painful thing in your own life
and there's nothing u can do to get out of it or get a pass for this time
but that's not all that panics me i also get anxious when i think about looking at him the second he comes out
what will he look like me or my ex
Will everything be ok with him
what if he isn't crying or if he's like me i was born a blue baby not breathing with the cord wrapped around the neck.
What if they take him to another room right away because of a problem and i don't have that initial bond and i don't feel attached to him? Would that be my fault and make me a bad Mom?
Omg i have to tell u ladies about this episode of a baby story i watched yesterday. This woman having her second baby a boy and everything was going perfect she was induced had a scheduled delivery went textbook and he comes out and the nurses and daddy are all looking down at him on the weighing table looking concerned and confused she saw them over there and heard them say "well let's tell her now" and brought him over he didn't have any fingers on his right hand and nobody saw it on any of the ultrasounds and said it was caused by him being smosshed up against the placenta and that caused growth restriction because his hand was up against her and left no room for fingers to form.
And this worries me because idk how many if u read my post Everytime i go in for an ultrasound... but for the last 3 visits we haven't even gotten good measurements because hes always smashed up against my placenta and what if he's going to have facial deformaties because that's what he's always hiding is his face and his hands it just really worries me espicially since i saw that poor womans face when they where showing her sons hand for the first time.
And OF COURSE just like her no matter what he looks like I'm going to love him and be happy he is here but the shock and numbness on her face made me cry so hard lol like a big baby!
I think no matter what I'm just going to be worried until its all over and I'm holding him but it helps to express what's in my mind and just get it out and hearing everybodys responses and similar worries and stories.
Sorry this was so long! My conversation are actually numb and tingly now! Only experienced that since being pregnant how weird
@babyboyontheway I can completely understand your fear, every mom, and mom-to-be worries about that stuff. Just remember that her story was on TV because it is a rare (and shocking) experience. TV stories can often scare us, but the truth is, they're being played, or told because most people would never have to deal with that!!
There's pros n cons for every choice i guess. I realize i just have to wait and see how it plays out. Something may happen and its out of my hands how i deliver u never know
