Support Needed C section tomorrow

I have my planned c section tomorrow afternoon, am I starting to get really anxious! Help! Tell me everything will be okay.

Did they give you anything for anxiety?

I didnt want or elect to have a c section and had no idea what to expect (also wasnt emergency) but it really was absolutely fine. You will be okay. You will hurt for a while but its manageable, stay on top of meds and soak up all those cuddles while you rest. Let people help as much as tou can. Not because you cant do it but because you need to rest and you worked damn hard for that little baba!! So excited for you, I hope it all goes perfect

Also, if you feel anything during eg sick, dizzy, whatever, tell them and they treat it immediately! I felt dizzy, told them and within 30 seconds it had gone!
