I had another child a year ago. This is my second chid. My first child I was 17 years old. I had to have an emergency cesarean ,I had toxemia. With my second child I wanted to try natural birth.But I was in labor for 24 hours and my little one just wanted to stay put.So I had to have another cesarean. As you know you have to have a spinal-epidural. Now for some reason I have awful back pain. Did the doctors do something wrong? hunnie

I have had two of them as well. My first was an emergany c-section. The little bugger turned his head and got stuck. With my second I decided I didnt want problems so I went for another c-section. They gave me to much medicine and I couldnt feel anything from my neck down. I couldnt feel my self breath. That was scary. My anistesiologist told me I was ok and he was watching my vitals. He rubed my cheek and told me to relax. Then after the baby was born I had a reaction to the meds. I was throwing up and itching like crazy. They gave me meds to help. You never know if the docs might have nicked something in your back. They are in a very touchy place and one wrong move could hurt you. I would go to a doc and see what they say about it.
