What a friggen friend and a half you are hon. I think its truely wonderful that you dont want to hurt her raw emotions atm.

Having 2 emergency c/s that last thing I wanted to hear was gore and gutts so to speak. I was far more happier talking about how gorgeous my baby was and hearing how good I looked at the time.

I hope this is the friend that is getting those nappies hon cause you could talk about them until the cows came home.

Just being there and not pushing anything verbally from her would be just a fantastic thing to do. Let her know you there for when she wants and chat about anything else bar the c/s and home birth. Let her lead the way of any conversation's about c/s and birthing and give her your opinion when she ask's for it. Itsnot worth making a mess of a moment and suffering foot in mouth.

Your the bomb hon.
