Can I ask why you are having a c/s this time??

My c/s was really good, it sounds weird to say that I enjoyed it. The guy who did the drip and spinal talked the whole time, I had a great little midwife who chatted to us pre-theater.
The main thing people are scared of is the spinal block. But, they put a local in first and you only feel a slight sting.
The thing I hated was the warmth going down my legs and then the numbness. Also, they didn't wait very long before they put the catheter in and it hurt just a little bit.
They rubbed ice on my body to make sure I couldn't feel anything.
Put the curtain up, DH finally came in and we just talked and the surgeons let me know where they were up to and answered any questions that I had.

I got out of bed after 20 hours (I had no reason to get out of bed, seeing how DD was at the Children's) and that was the worst bit.
But once I worked out how to move without pain it was great. DH helped me shower the first 2 times which was the best feeling ever. That first shower!!

I was off all pain relief after 44 hours.
