Hi Spice,
I am still around and am here for support.
Like you, I had a
CS under GA and have found no support from friends and family - no one understands the hurt. Even
DH doesn't understand. I am told to just suck it up and should be grateful that
DS#1 turned out okay - especially because our first pregnancy ended in a loss. Yes, any baby is special but so was my birth experience. After all it was the moment I finally became a mum and I can never get it back.
I totally hear you. Yes, we need support.
My
CS under GA was unnecessary. I simply trusted the wrong
OB and should have sought a second opinion from someone who actually knew what they were doing. (And yes, I have sought legal advice about suing and the answer was it wasn't worth it!! Even the legal system can't compensate for the hurt and loss! - another story!)
It hurts like hell that the first sight of my baby was one that had been wiped clean and had been dressed!
I am so sorry that you had to go through this and that there are other women who have had GAs too!
