My midwife recommended a book called The Cesarean Birth Experience. Some of the medical information is out of date - it's 20 years old - but the sections on emotional and family aspects, and the advice about making your Cesarean as birthlike as possible, are wonderfully helpful and reassuring.
The book's out of print. If you can't find it at your library, I'd be happy to send you my copy.
...and I'm so very sorry. I want to just grab that woman by her shoulders and shake her until her head pops off.
