He told her the procedure is 4 to 5 hrs an the baby would be asleep for prob 8 hrs she wouldn't feel her. He is doing it as out patient he said her throat will be real sore is only thing an he can't give her strong pain med. I'm real concerned for her an the baby.

Hello,

It will be safe for baby. she needs to undergo the procedure, I believe both mother and baby will remain safe during surgery, there’s nothing to worry about.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
