General & Family Physician 's  Response
Thanks for using HCM, I understand your concern and will try to give you my medical advice, I think you are overthinking about that, the C section is a surgical procedure used to deliver a baby through a horizontal incision,that's procedure was planned for your doctor and he evaluated all risk and what works better for you and your baby, the surgeon use anesthesia( no painfull )and the recovery process is really fast, the stiches used in your uterus will dissolve in the body and the skin stiches or staples are usually removed 3-7 days later, the average time for the surgery it's about 30-40 minutes and the hospital stay about 3 days. I recommend you don't worry too much because you can get unbalance your sugar levels or even your blood pressure. I hope that my advice has been helpful,take care
