A Turkish friend of mine had to have an emergency C section last year.  Her labour had started but it was progressing slowly and she was in a great deal of pain, so an inducing agent was introduced.  Immediately, the baby showed signs of distress and the mother became unconscious. They were rushed to the OT.

 

Thankfully, both mother and baby survived but it was a distressing experience for the family.

I have absolutely no experience with C-sections but I can tell you that a vaginal delivery can be an uncomfortable experience to recover from as well.  I had to sit quite "gingerly" for about 2 weeks after giving birth....and for your ladies who have had vaginal deliveries....I don´t need to tell you why....for those who have not....I will let that be a surprise.

 

I just would hate to have to take care of a surgical wound AND a new baby!  As for sex....your partner won´t be getting any for a while anyway, so who cares.  All I can tell you is that things DO go back.  Sometimes it just takes time!  As for breastfeeding....womens breasts are destined to deflate and fall south...get over it and buy a nice bra!{#lang_emotions_lol_fast}

Well doudi, in spite of the pain, having a baby is an amazing experience.  Eventually, you do forget about it....and then the sometimes inevitable happens....we do it again.  {#lang_emotions_bigsmile}  Women are amazingly resilient and forgiving.

 That would be an epidural!  It is an injection of sorts, into the spine and they have to mind the spinal cord, which then numbs from the breasts down.  To check they poke you with needles and say stupid things like "can you feel that" {#lang_emotions_lol}
