C-Section Recovery, Health & Preparation

Here are just a few things they are saying about the Worry Free C-section Guide. 

I’m excited because this took several months of my life to put this unique guide together and it’s helps many women overcome anxieties and stress due to having a c-section. 

But it’s more than that, it thrills me to know that so many women have found comfort in this guide and have gotten back on their feet quicker and had a much more memorable experience.  

You ladies are heroes in my mind and you rock!

Well today is 8/8/08 and it’s a big day.  Why?  For one thing it’s the start of the Summer Olympics in China but it’s also “8/8/08″ …which has kind of a ring to it.

But what struck me as interesting is that my good friend and maternity nurse, Sheila told me that today will be one of the busiest days at the hospitals because of all the moms requesting c-sections in order that their babies be born on this day.  That doesn’t surprise me, remember the 1/1/01 date?  It was a c-section frenzy.

Ok, I think it’s cool to have your child’s birthday on such a memorable date but putting yourself through a c-section would be a little more than I’d want to go through for claiming any date as my child’s birthday.   

My hope would be that anyone passionate enough about grabbing the 8/8/08 birth date that they put themselves through a c-section, then they’ll be plenty geared up and ready for the recovery …I hope :-) 

Any thoughts?

The thought of having a c-section can stir up concerns and thoughts.  For those that have had a c-section there are lots of opinions and emotions.

If you’ve had a c-section or are considering one, what are some of your thoughts, concerns and emotions?

Ever heard of it?  It’s a phobia that is the Fear of Giving Birth. 

Now that may sound a bit strange to you but there are women who legitimately suffer from this form of phobia and the widely growing personal requests for having a C-section today may be, in part, due to the fear of giving birth. 

Tokophobia is said to occur in about 1 in 6 women.  Read more »
