Just want to say a huge thank you for all your kind words and thoughts. It means such a lot. After the event, I will show Diana. I'm sure she will be touched by your kindness. Will let you all know more at some point on Wednesday. Can't be with Diana as I've got the important job of looking after 3 year old Zoe, our first granddaughter. Bye for now until Wednesday.

Pauline My husband was born by caesarian in 1955 and his brother in 1960. A friend of mine had 3 children in the late 1980s/early 1990s this way too. All are fine. Please try not to worry - having a baby whichever way is risky, but probably a lot safer now than its ever been. I am sure you will be posting an exciting update on Wednesday! nell

Hello Pauline Much love and positive thoughts to you and your daughter. With a planned section everything will have been factored in in their preparations for the op. Nothing will have been left to chance. The whole procedure has changed so much in 50 years to be almost unrecognisable. Please try not to worry. My grandaughter was born by emergency caesarian section 4 and a half years ago - and I was with my daughter all the way through - a magical experience. Hugs Magsxx

Pauline, I think I am right in saying that in the 1950's new mothers were kept in bed for long periods of time, not like today, when they are up and about in no time, and don't forget those stockings lol. I am sure everything will be fine. I will be thinking positive thoughts for you and your daughter on Wednesday, and don't forget to let us know the vital statistics. Has she chosen a name yet?

Hi Will be thinking of you all. I had 2 by c section. One 7 years ago & one nearly 5. They introduced the sexy stockings between the 2!! So things have changed even in the last 7 years. I think they can even send you home now after about 48 hours whereas I had to stay in for 5 days!! Penny

Hi pauline, I can understand your worries and I think it's only natural. When something has happened in the family before even though you know that it is very unlikely to happen again it doesn't stop you thinking what if it does. My Father died resulting from Peritonitis (burst apendix) so when my Daughter got the same thing I was very worried indeed but I had no need as she was fine. I wish you and your daughter all the best, chin up. Margaret

Pauline, sending you and your daughter loads of love, hugs and prayers. I had a Caesarian 16 years ago due to a serious illness, and I'm still here to tell the tale, so I'm sure you're right when you say that things have moved on since then. Love Mandy xxx
