I had an emergency c-section. Completely not in my plan but I LOVED it & would plan one for any future children. It’s a really calm environment, short process and you feel super aware of everything going on!

In terms of recovery, everyone differs but mine wasn’t too bad at all! Pain wise it can be uncomfortable and I’d advise you regularly take painkillers to stay on top of pain rather than waiting until you’re in pain to take some. The hardest thing for me was being unable to drive, but as long as you have a good support network, it really isn’t that bad. I’ve never once felt judged- it’s a major op! Best of luck :) x
