C section vs VGS

I have had 3 c sections, two were emergency and my last was planned. I have also had my gall bladder removed. I survived those just fine.

I am terrified I can't survive the sleeve surgery. I think its all in my head.

Can anyone share their experiences with these verses the VGS?

      c section MUCH harder recovery. Hysterectomy much harder recover, both totally worth it. The sleeve was nothing compared to them.

      My sleeve was ezzy pezzy compared to my 2 c-sections. Plus you don't have any night feedings and can concentrate on just your recovery! I have much less pain and more energy after sleeve! Good luck

    Was the worst feeling in my life. I remeber waking up in recovery a good friend of mine was there by my side as they planned to work that day for me.. And they said maternity was coming down to check on baby. I asked if baby was ok.. 5,000 times. Once j heard him I was in relief. Pain but relief. The average was 3 a year on pregnant women and my doctor had the highest # of those.

    A change we could have both died.. And a greater chance baby.

    He's 4 now almost 5 ????????
