Second C-section.

Hello, ladies I am currently 28 weeks pregnant with my second child and I an scheduled to have a c-section again.  Honestly I am terrified.  With my first pregnancy the c-section wasn't planned and when they  tried to give me medication through my epidural or didn't work so they put me out.  I don't know what to expect and I am terrified because I know a repost c-section can be dangerous.  Have any of you ladies experienced this?

The second one is soooo much easier in my experience. You know what to expect, you aren't panicking (I was in labor during my first and I was in so much pain). I hate that I've had them, but if you have to have a second, there are so many advantages of planning it,rather than having a rapid,unplanned one. You'll likely have a spinal block, get to hear your babies first cry (this was always my boohoo moment) and get to see baby right away.
