'My husband wants to have another baby but I'm too scared to give birth after my past traumatic experience'
OUR son’s birth was very traumatic and it’s left me feeling I never want to go through that again.
I am 24, my husband is 25 and we have been married for three years. We were looking forward to being together in the delivery room but I had to have an emergency C-section.Our son was premature and had to spend two months in the neonatal unit. He is now 18 months old and my husband is desperate to have another baby.
The trouble is that our son’s birth has scared me and put me off having another child. It is driving a wedge between us but I just can’t face taking the risk again.
