Hi shadow,
Mine was half body epi, so was conscious when dr woody did the delivery. Yes, you leave it to him, he will advise you what is best for you. He is fast in the opt, less than 35 mins for his part. The rest would be taken over by the OT nurses.
Once I was wheeled back to the ward, nurse will ask you to wriggle your toes so to circulate blood flow. My wound don't feel numb, just that getting down the bed is a challenge on the next day and ESP when u cough or sneeze. Guess that the norm. The 3rd day, I can walk around and go wash up at the toilet.
If wound is v painful, ask nurse for pain killer. Anyway they will include pain killer in your stay there.
You would be safe under dr woody and the hospital team.
Mine i fork cash of 2.2k after all CPF deduction (for myself and baby) upon discharge.
You enjoy #2 pregnancy with dr woody.
