No dear u will not feel like eating during labour, its a different feel.. They will not let you eat

Jeevitha says she ate. Annie and Revauthi Rajamani, u both say they won't allow us to eat. What really happens? 😅 Does it differ from hospital to hospital? I'm more confused now! 😂😅

Actually, I have had a c section. For me, they strictly didn't allow me to eat/drink for 9 hours before the surgery

For normal labour, if it is already more than 3 cms cervicle dilation with increased contractions, enema is given and bowel will be emptied and at this point we dont allow to eat anything other than water.. that to if patient insist..
If the labor is delayed one with no dilation or less than 2 or 3cms, we allow patients have a normal light diet and to have good amount of fluids.. prolonged labor causes dehydration..
If it is c-section then no food no water..
