| | Surviving a C-SectionWritten by Lee-Anne Robert
After 42 weeks of pregnancy, two days of undergoing inducement and physical stress on baby, my daughter was delivered via an emergency C-section. Oh, it was music to my ears when my gynecologist arrived in my hospital room at 4:30 a.m. and told me they were going to do an emergency C-section. I must have been in shock or delirious! However, after going through a traumatic two days, I had had enough and I wanted to meet this precious baby who lived inside of me for 9+ months. The time came and I was wheeled to operating room, and what a blessed event it was to see my sweet new baby girl! I wasn’t prepared for aftermath of a C-Section but I am so grateful that I had a great family who were there for me and helped me every step of way. 1) Plan ahead. No one can predict whether or not you'll need an emergency c-section. So prepare yourself with information. 2) Try not to be upset if you are told you have to undergo a C-section to deliver your baby. I know that many new parents are less than thrilled at prospect and have expected to have a normal vaginal delivery. Plenty of women feel put down and feel less like a woman because they did not deliver their baby through hard work of labour. I know it is emotionally hard. Truly, main concern is you and your baby’s health and that is more important than how you delivered your baby. 3) Expect a brief hospital stay. My daughter and I were in hospital for four days after birth. If you require assistance at any time in caring for you or your baby, are uncomfortable due to pain, or have any questions, do not be afraid to ask for help. There were times when I was too proud to press buzzer to ask for assistance. But, believe me, their assistance is very much required, especially with care of your newborn baby.
