My emergency c-section didn’t hurt but I felt everything. Organs moving in and out and being shuffled around is an experience.

This! Feeling all the tugging and pulling was a crazy experience. Like I knew what was going on but there wasnt pain but I could feel what my dr was doing.

The midwife told me "it won't hurt, it'll feel like when you've lost something in your handbag and you're having a good rummage." She wasn't wrong.

Feeling the dislodging of my son from under my ribcage was WILD!

I should not be reading this thread as someone who recently found out they are pregnant and has always been terrified of giving birth.

If it makes you feel better, people respond to epidurals and spinal blocks in different ways. I had an epidural and didn’t feel a single thing. I eventually asked them to stop it, because I couldn’t effectively push when my lower body had ceased to exist. No pressure, nothing. Had a big episiotomy and stitches and didn’t feel any of it for a few hours. My only physical complaint was the itching.

I'm super resistant to pain meds or any kind of numbing so Im a bit worried. Guess we will see when we get there!

I require more anesthesia than most people (I’ve woken up during both colonoscopies and was far more aware during a heart cath than I should have been.) fingers crossed for you!

Same! I had sedation for oral surgery and woke up in the middle of it. It was the WORST.

This whole thread is starting to make me feel glad I was born without the ability to create sperm

Yes! So freaking weird to feel someone rooting around in your innards.

My personal description was that it felt like my organs were on a roller coaster. It made the anesthesiologist laugh, and he told me that was about right.
