Hey Sheza, you will be fine, you can do it (c/s or natural). They really won't let things get to the stage they did with Caden, so either way the experience will be less scary.

I had the shakes before my c/s, not sure if I was more scared of the surgery or having a baby...lol

I feel quite lucky, I healed very quickly from my section. I wouldnt really call mine an emergency.. Yes they had to get him out as they had interfered too much and his heart rate was dropping and my cervix was swelling and he was swimming backwards (completely disengaged by the time they got him out, his head was out of my pelvis!). But once they stopped the syntocinin I didnt need in the first place his heart rate leveled out so it was about 2 hours after the call was made before he was delivered. Mind you the fact that it took them 30 minutes to get my second line could have had something to do with why it took so long!

What I found hard was the drawn out induction. I wont be going down that road again.. its VBAC naturally or elective if overdue or PE again.
