[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They will either give you a spinal or they will give you general anesthesia.  They will not operate on you unanesthetized if that is your worry?[/quote]

They sometimes cut without anesthesia. I’ve seen it happen. [/quote]

DS was in a bad situation and I was told if I couldn't deliver him vaginally in 10 minutes, I would have an emergency C-section with no epidural or anesthesia. The emergency was that the baby had to be out of my body ASAP. I would survive without pain meds, he would not survive a minute longer. Luckily I was able to push him out. Still shocked and scared at the possibility of the different outcome. No one prepared me for that as a possibility.[/quote]

If they had time to give you an additional 10 minutes, they had time to put you under.[/quote]

Ugh yeah WTH. You either misunderstood or that is the craziest set of options to give someone. ASAP is not 10 minutes. Thats plenty of time to do an epidural and certainly to do general. The midwife practice I used at a hospital said they could get baby out in about 2 minutes including administering general. [/quote]
