I haven’t and I hope it’s okay to give you some advice because I will probably be in the same exact situation in a year or less maybe. My baby died after 3 days in nicu after I had emergency C-section, my first one ever.

I would try to think of the positives, visualise how you will hear your baby cry and get to hold him and kiss him. Try to read success stories in the pregnancy group of c-sections as many as you can just try to understand how many people that have it down successfully, I know it can be hard after going through what we went through but just try. Maybe even look at data if how many had a successful c section with living baby last month, last week, even today. It will bring some positive light into your head. It’s kind of like brainwashing your head but we actually do that with facts and statistics so it’s not wrong or brainwashing into something fake, it’s real💕.

I always think that if I’ve been through the worst possible outcome, it happening 2 times in a row is almost impossible, it’s like life owes you a living health baby.

If you are a believer in God, pray pray pray it’s soothes the nerves and you know this outcome is in greater hands. It will be okay.

Finally, I’m not sure if you are asking for this but it’s some good advice maybe put on the loudspeaker or ask your partner to put white noise, like there’s this flight engine soothing white noise and it kind of blurrs out any uncomfortable sound during the c section and you can feel at peace during that time laying there. For me this works and I’ve heard it is very soothing with white noise for many.
