C-Section question
Does anyone know how many hours you have to be "food free" before undergoing a c-section? I'm talking about one that isn't a scheduled c-section? TIA

Re: C-Section question
I think if it is unscheduled, and an emergency c-section they do it no matter what... if you puke while on the table, you puke...

C-Section question
For unscheduled emergency they just do it no matter what. If you throw up, you just throw up. If it's like mine, unscheduled but not an emergency, they said 8 hours. Thank God there was an emergency C-section before mine because i bought some time.

Re: C-Section question
6 hours. My OB decided to do a c/s when I started to show signs of pre-e. He said he wanted to do it around 6 pm, that the food I ate at 11 am should be fine.

i had an emergency c-section and they gave me some charcoal thing i had to drink since we didn't know exactly the last time i had eaten before the surgery. i was under general anesthesia and had to be intubated so im not sure if its the same if you are awake.
