I had an elective c-section with DD2 after an emergency section with DD1 (which left me with PTSD and PND). DD2's birth was everything I could have asked for, everything went really well and I was able to have skin-to-skin within 10 minutes (possibly less) of her being born and she stayed with me while I was being stitched up, into recovery and when we went back down to the ward. I was in hospital for 2 and a half days. I can't help with the BF side of things as I chose to FF from birth due to the trauma from DD1's birth and subsequent events that followed.
