O.K I need to get this off my chest. My first child was a natural birth which took 6 hours and no drugs. I absolutely loved my labour and was looking forward to going through it again with my second baby. 5 weeks prior to my due date I was told Christian was breeched and had to have a c-section. I tried all the excercises and moxibustion but no luck. As the date drew closer I enquired about breech deliveries and external celphalic versions. In this day and age it was really hard to find someone who was willing to take me on this late in the pregnancy. Anyhow the day came of my c-section. I cried the whole day until I went into theatre. I had my beautiful baby who I absolutely love but I still feel really sad 4 months down the track. I missed out on my naturl labour. I still feel some internal pains (muscle pain) which is a constant reminder. I feel let down and the thought of having major abdominal surgery really upsets me. I hope to one day get over this. Thanks for letting me vent.
