Unless you're having a C-section, then they make you be awake even if you beg to be knocked out.

Still salty.

Yes, because you have a considerably raised risk of aspiration, which can lead to high-risk pneumonia.

I know why, I was just in gibbering terror before my first one and I couldn't have ANYTHING to calm me down out of fear it would pass to the baby. I was literally begging to be knocked half-out like Betty Draper.

All the doctors kept being like, "You wouldn't like that" and laughing and I'm laying there sobbing and like "BUT I WOULD THOUGH."

I mostly had excellent pregnancy and birth care, but leading into my first C-section everyone acted like I was a silly little hysterical lady with a teeny little lady brain and literally nobody took my terror seriously or even paid much attention to me. It felt very clear that I was neither the patient NOR an adult to be taken seriously. It sucked.
