TW childbirth - not detailed and most importantly not traumatic!!!

I had an elective section under general anaesthetic and it could not have been more different from Leo's birth. I did feel quite grim for a few hours after coming round but I've managed to get up and walk over to the chair and into the bathroom and stuff now so I'm super chuffed about that. Haven't cracked breastfeeding yet but wasn't really feeling well enough anyway for most of the day and I feel pretty optimistic about it. Gave it another go just there but bebe is too sleepy at the moment. I didn't feel a wild rush of emotion when I met him, but I didn't expect to, and I definitely feel more of an immediate connection this time (sorry Leo, I adore you and it wasn't your fault lol). I'm tired but not 40+ hours of excruciating contractions every two minutes tired. I was holding him for a while there and didn't feel a visceral need to put him down. I feel..... good?? 🥰
