They wanted me fasting because the obgyn caring for me that day felt I was going to be a c-section. And pre-ops must fast.
That said, I went and had breakfast in the cafeteria when they took my 'clear fluids' tray away from me. I wasn't about to be so exhausted I couldn't push. That was about 10am-ish.
By 1pm, I was seriously questioning the intelligence of having eaten, as it was making me very nauseated. And when the hard labour started, there was no way I would have been able to eat, even if I'd been hungry.
The part that I felt truly sucked was not being able to drink anything.
