Knew i would have a c-section so spent 6 months reading all info I could get my hands on. Have always avoided blood etc but the sheer exposure to the topic helped loads. Noticed that my phobia would return when I have a cold or feel run- down or ill. In the end I watched my uterus being sewn up while it was outside my body resting on my stomach. Was incredible! Have been soooo squeemish for as long as I can remember….couldn’t even hear the word blood being said without going in to meltdown. There is hope! Now I think it would be so cool to be a surgeon :-D
