It sounds like: It sounds like you're very frightened about the prospects of another c-section, after your experience with the first? You're so anxious you can hardly breathe? Hoping i've understood your question correctly . . . The good news is that there's help. You can work with a psychologist on breathing ; relaxation exercises/hypnosis to calm yourself. If these don't help, medication @ delivery may.
