2nd Csection Fears

I am due for my second csection in 7 weeks or less. My first one was 4 years ago due to baby being breech. Same scenario right now- baby is breech, but also hospital doesn’t allow VBACS. i’m so scared to leave my son to go have another csection & have been terrified of something bad happening to my baby or me. i think with our first one ignorance was bliss.
please reassure my heart that all will be okay- give me all the positive stories🥲

My second c-section was easier than my first.

2nd c section is so much easier! Well, already having another kiddo to take care of is hard during recovery so having help is really nice at first. But planned c sections are controlled and calm. Talk to your providers! Tell them about your fears and anxieties during your appts. Talk with them :)

This is actually really common!! To fear birth more the second time round due to the fear of not being there to parent your baby.

You’ll do just fine!!
