C section - LA

Just found out today that I will be undergoing c section under LA instead of GA. The thought of staying awake while being cut and stitched is abit scary to me. Would like to check if husbands are allowed in the operating theatre for c sec under LA. Doing it at mount Alvernia. Your response would be appreciated

yes, if u are awake husband can accompany u. only GA when u are fully asleep husband is not allowed inside. there is nth to be scared! it will be like natural birth where u dont feel ur legs, and the procedure is really fast. only 10 mins to get the baby out and prob 30-45 mins of stitching.
