"Planned cesarean section "

About: Burnley General Hospital

I had a planned c section in August and was given the opportunity to have a 'gentle' C section. I was worried on the day but I neednt have been! The theatre team were absolutely fantastic and kept the atmosphere chilled and light hearted which was refreshing. I am writing this review because I would absolutely recommend a gentle c section to anybody. It was amazing, the drapes are down meaning the baby is put directly on to your chest after birth for skin to skin and delayed cord clamping. This c section was my third and final as I was sterilised during and previously I had never had the instant rush of love as my babies have always been taken away first. So thankyou so much for giving me the opportunity to experience this with my final baby, I will never experience natural birth but experience the instant rush of love when your baby is seconds old is absolutely priceless and I'm so glad I got the opportunity to have this type of birth!
