I too am thinking about the same thing. I really am not sure I'd cope if I need a C-section. I'd love to know if anyone has had any luck in being asked to be put under for the entire thing?

My sister had a C-section and it was okay until the baby was out but she hated some of the sensations afterwards and started to freak out. They offered to put her under then, but I'd prefer to just miss the whole experience. To me the option of seeing the baby first pulled out isn't enough for me to be able to stay awake for it! I'm terrified.
