Did a emergency csec at NUH. The overall atmosphere by the operating team was quite relaxed, which is a good thing as everyone worked well together. There'll be a drape over u so u won't be able to see anything. Yes will push the doctor pushing down to push the baby out. After that, doc will sew u up, and you'll be wheeled to another area for monitoring. Btw, coz I was on epidural, I shivered a lot. That's a common side effect, no need to worry. Once they think you're OK, you'll be wheeled back to your bed. Overall I had a pretty good experience for the csec itself. Healing took a while coz it's a major op after all. No post natal massage until 3 weeks after. Will need to monitor wound for infection. Roll to your side to get up coz it'll hurt.
