A perfectly ordinary fear

Well, it looks like there's going to be no panic attack and no flashback; yesterday's theatre visit sparked a perfectly ordinary fear response (pretty frightful fear but just ordinary in-the-present fear) but nothing worse.
I'm downstairs now for a minute because I needed the loo and the phone rang. I may use the opportunity to make tea, too. Rob has gone to work, Linnea has been taken away by a friend, I am lying in bed most of the day. Yesterday I wasn't able to lie down for almost 12 hours, and I'm really paying for it.
I can't sit up on one arm in bed comfortably, either, so I won't be online much today. Just me and my few remaining library books and Radio 4.

Two of my daughters-in-law had C-sections - one of them twice (twins and then a single baby a year later!) - and were fine both during and afterward, in spite of their great disappointment at not giving birth 'normally'. However, their situations were nowhere near as difficult as yours. Thinking of you, and wishing you all the best for 'the big day'.
