I'm actually having a C-section. :\\ Not by choice but medical issues necessitate that.

I've had 2 - If you don't do the labor and pushing bit first, the recovery is much easier/quicker, not anywhere near as bad as I was fearring.

I like the burners, but hate the smells of their waxes - they are VERY strong, much too much aromatic. Of coursse I'm gagging on the odor, and people walk in and tell me the house smell so nice when it is on, so I guess it depends how sensitive you are to perfumes. I break off a tiny piece and put it with plain wax, or buy Partylight (which are strong too, but not as strong). I can't imagine the wax in either of them is very healthy to breathe in, but I can't find anyone who makes them from Beeswax which smells wonderful to me.

Reading the book for your particular incubator is a very very good thing.
I have 4, and all are different.

I think I have read my book at least a dozen times over the past 3 weeks.

Try here. They are my local supplier and very good people. Thier daughter makes lots of things with the bees wax.

They kept going back and forth with the due date for Olivia too. Due to all the surgeries cerclages I had to keep Olivia in, they could not let me go into labor. Usually with a cerclage they take it out a few weeks before the due date, but it was the only thing holding DD in. I had to stay on terbutaline from 27 weeks on to stop the contractions for risk of tearing, and they scheduled the C-section for 3 weeks before the due date - after she was born, they did an exam, and said she appeared to be more like 35 weeks, which is right where I thought it was from the start!

One thing to ask your Dr. about is numbness around the incision; in some people, the numbness never goes away. from my experience, I think it has to do with the incision location rather than different people. My first C-section, feeling took 6 months to fully return. My second, the incision was made higher (I don't know why - I suspect because time #1 was an emergency C-section with baby was stuck in birth canal and in distress). Feeling has never returned after #2 and I have no feeling from just below my navel down to a couple inches below the incision. It's a real bummer, but it was my trade-off for a healthy baby.
