Thank you all so much for your well wishes

I am nervous but not as nervous as I was the first time

i think it is more the shock of it all happening so quickly! At the doctors today they said I would be booked in for Wed next week, then I got a phone call to say it is tomorrow! Eek!
Giggle berry I think the first week I might sleep in the spare room, and then we'll work something out I guess? I just adore sleeping with my daughter, it is so nice to snuggle and she wakes up so happy. I'd like to find a way to keep co sleeping and also have bubs in the bassinet, I hope she gets used to the noise quickly ��

Never feel bad or guilty trust me enjoy your delivery and cuddle that little baby they are so precious.

Good luck tomorrow .

I made the same decision for similar reasons when I had DS eight months ago . I don't regret it at all and I only have happy memories of his birth.

I also found the recovery from the elective CS a bit easier than the emergency one I had first time around after 18 hrs labour.

I also agree that you need to trust your intuition and you are not letting anyone down.

Hope all goes well.

It all went soooooo smoothly!!

DS Sebastian Nicholas was born today at 10:02am, weighing 2.9kg.
The staff at William Angliss are incredible, caring and I am delighted with the experience!
What a wonderful way to help me forget the bad part of my last delivery, I am def coming back for a third here

Dr MCCallum was such a gentleman, and he made sure I was relaxed and even did a little 'mini tuck' as my previous scar had extra tissue. We'll see the results when my tummy is not so swollen I guess!

I am just delighted and I highly recommend this hospital
