Spinal anaesthesia is the safest for both you and your baby. As regards sedation as it will sedate you so is going to happen with your baby, which is not good. What you should do while getting spinal anaesthesia, relax yourself, imagine good thoughts , divert your attention. You will not have much problem

I don’t know if you have an indication for C - section, but if you don’t, I wouldn’t advice you to opt for it. If you do have an Indica, by all means, it is safe. But without an indication, I wouldn’t recommend it - it’s after all a major surgery. Your maximum pain during child birth is during the birth - in a C- section, you ll be bearing the pain for atleast 2 weeks, usually more, and you ll have a newborn to look after through the pain. The other option for anaesthesia is a general anaesthesia which is abalones unless absolutely indicated because the anaesthetic agent can affect the child , and depress the newborns breathing. Have you considered Epidural - that’s a spinal for anaesthesia, but birth via normal vaginal delivery. Helps mitigate the pain.
Next Steps
Careful reconsideration with your OBG.
