Hi everyone and thanks for the great read here. You know I never thought that the baby would have to be seperated from you AT ALL if thats not want you wanted, so I'm glad I know differently before I TTC #2 later this year.

My son was born via emergency c/s (I was originally going to induced) and he had to have an operation immediatley after his birth so we knew well beforehand that we would be seperated and that was ok, just what we had to do first time around.

Because of this though, the only thing I really really really wanted for next time around is for us not to be seperated at all and for us to be in recovery together, so what an eye opener that I might be told no!

Hmmmm...yes definatley up for that challenge when the time comes. Also the thought that I might have family holding the baby before me is a big no no, so great tip there too. What ever time the c/s is scheduled for it wont actually be until 3 hours later so far as our families will know...thanks again! xxx
