Hi Girls,

Jumping in a bit late here ...

Mine was scheduled and I had the spinal block. I didn't even feel it going in. I think because the c/sec was planned, the atmosphere around the whole thing was actually quite calm and centred. I felt the doctor doing something but no actual pain or any very strong sensation as such. I recovered very well and quickly afterwards. As a result of this, I wouldn't have a problem going through the same procedure again if it was necessary.

If you'd like to talk about it further, please feel free to PM. Good luck with your caesareans ladies and I wish you a swift and easy recovery.

Mel
