I had staples with my first and no they didn't pop they sewed me shut with the second and used glue with the third I have to say that i recovered much faster with the glue I'd ask about it? it's worth asking about

Nannette, I've had 3 c-section and the drugs they give you help with the pain afterward I was completely off the pain meds by 2 weeks with all three kids and I'm a big baby when it comes to pain

its natural to think about it. Its scary. Honestly I was in labor for 24 hours with my first. my water broke at home and went to hospital. contractions were the worst and when they get really bad the doc will ask if u want a epidural and they usually do it pretty fast. During my pushing (which was 40 min long) i was laughing and even asked for a mirror to watch the baby come out. Honestly the pushing wasnt the worst. Maybe if I didnt get the epi it woulda been, but it was so worth getting the epi. with my daughter I never knew if she dropped. if ur water brakes it wont be to much of a big deal, just like if u had peed urself. when it happened i was on the couch and ran into the shower, with the water streaming down my legs I called my fam to tell em to get to the hospital and called my doc. no biggy. now im 34 weeeks pregnant and the baby is breach now what im worried about is the csection. Not for the actual csection but the pain and recovery afterwards, thats what I am terrified about. Hope ur pregnancy goes smoothly. and remember get the epi! lol

I'm paranoid too, 33weeks and my daughter hasn't even dropped yet! Lots of litle reasons why Im so jumpy but it boils down to the same thing questioning every twitch, twinge and tweak of your belly...braxton hicks don't help was that a real contraction or a fake one. So far I've just been reassuring myself that when I went into labour with my first I was already past the point of paranoia, all relaxed and irritated with everyone elses jumpyness...so basically when you're not worried it's time anymore, that'll be when it's time lol.
