    I'd only want a C-Section if they'd promise to do a tummy-tuck at the same time!

    But I've heard such horror stories about them from women that have had them (staples coming out, the smell, not being able to do anything or drive for 6 weeks) that I know I'll only have one if there's no other options; besides I'm certainly not too posh to push it out!


    there are horror stories for any procedure, i had a trouble free C section after a long labour... they do say you can't drive etc but i was luggin pram up 2 fights of stairs after a couple of weeks, as i had no choice, if you've got Wayne about then things will be great, you'd not be allowed to overdo it..... they're just being overly cautious saying 6 weeks!

    i did ask the surgeon for a tummy tuck while he was "doing" mine but funnily enough he never laughed or even took off a little. I've no scarring visable now at all.... the worst part is getting up and having shower with catheter and drain in situ but i said to my sister who helped me in shower, well it's better than having my bits ripped to shreds... i remember it hurt to laugh!

    Bonus of a c section is that you don't get bleeding afterwards, so no need to wear big pants and monstrous pads!
    I'm just a seething mass of contradictions....

    oooh, just had my first sneaky look at the weather forecast where we are going in Spain. We go in 13 days, so I will be able to start looking at the 10 day forecast pretty soon!

    oh carp.................I've hit a real energy 'brick wall'...........I was just sitting here a few minutes ago with my eyes closed and I was so tired I couldnt' move. Managed to motivate myself to get some water to try to wake myself up and I've shoved some washing in the machine but it hasn't helped to shake it off.

    I have to go back out to work in just over half an hour. Times like this I wish I liked coffee!!

    This time of day is my "Danger" time too...........I am often woken up by one of the boys reminding me that i have something cooking.:rolleyes: Once I go back out the door I get a second wind and then come home and collapse about 9pm.
