Nickers - Just read your story we also have some similarities with the whole c/s and afterwards feeling like you are going to die thing. I had a shower the morning after my c/s a sitting one of course as there is no way I could of stood in there and all of a sudden I started feeling off I thought I was either going to faint or die or both I pressed the emergency buzzer after 2 mins of contemplaiting doing it the nirse came in and she was talking to me but she just sounded like an out of tune radio station the next thing I remember was being put in a wheel chair and taken pack to bed dripping wet this was by far the worst experience I have ever felt in my life and is a BIG factor in me being scared to go for number 2 as much as I want another baby as I have to have another C/S I have no choice
