csection

my wife is freaking out. she has gestational diabetes which is very hard to control despite not eating white rice and sugary drinks. she recently loss her appetite at 32 weeks. she vomitted out all the brown rice and couldnt swallow healthy food. all she could eat was noodle soup, fruits and sandwiches. once a week will have milo. despite all that her numbers are still high. she is so scared of having to get a csection. she fears shes unable to move much cannot bath baby cannot breastfeed or bond w baby as much during the first few important days. is that true? 1) uncontrollable GD will end up in csection? 2) mothers who had csection will not have that bond w baby and will need to rely on others to bath or feed baby during the first few days?

Last week I had emergency csec too. I was worried unable to move and scare of pain. But the pain still bearable after 1vweek without painkiller, only the first few days very very painful, rest on bed most of the time but upper body still able to move and breast feed my baby. In fact after 2 days Gynae will ask the patient to walk abit in the room to prevent blood clots. Hubby play very impt role during this period. He help me most of the household and take care of baby shower and changing diaper while i jus lay on the bed and feed my baby. If u scare u cannot manage the baby and household alone, maybe u can consider getting maid/nanny.
