It depends on the surgery, getting your baby's hole in his heart fixed is completely different from if you where getting a abortion... The latter definitely having no sedation.That is because the fetus can not feel pain until the 20th week. We know today that fetuses can feel pain after a point in pregnancy and depending on the procedure they are given something but not sedated I think. Getting in distress can kill the fetus and can can do that so that will be avoided.
