C-section pain relief
Dear Mommies, I am 34 weeks + pregnant and on my last gynae appointment my baby is still in a flex breech position. Also her head is bigger than her actual size at 37 weeks. My gynae advise me to book for a C-section. However I cannot decide whether to go for Regional anesthesia (epidural) where I will be awake or go for General anesthesia where I will be asleep. I heard there are risks for epidural such as worse case is nerve damage. My gynae also informed me that if I opt for General anesthesia, when I am awake I am going to feel the pain, and normal oral pain killers won't help so it would be better to go for Regional anesthesia (epidural). Anybody have gone through C-Section and can share your experience? Thank you! #1stimemom
