Went in Thursday morning and was checked at 7.30 and was nothing going on so in went the pessary and she told me she owuld check me again between 1 and 2 to see if anything was going on. Spent most the morning walking around and was having mild cramps every few minutes by the time I got checked again. I was just 2cm by 2 so we went down to delievry to have my waters broken.
Waters got broke and absolutely flooded the place lol at about 2.50 and they said they would check me again at about 7pm. I was having regular contractions 4 every ten minutes for that whole time, they were painful but managable though. Got checked at 7 and hadnt progressed at all so was put on the drip. As soon as they attached me to it things started getting more painful.. I asked for gas and air at about 8ish but didnt use it very much until about 9ish, just enjoyed chewing the mouth piece
.. By ten I was getting tired and asked for some different pain relief, we went through the options as I hated them all last time and I was offered an injection similar to pethidine except this one doesnt affect baby, and was also given an antisickness as i was very nauseous 
... Fınally got my injection at 22.45ish and literally as she did it I started feeling like I needed to push... Baby was born at 23.03 so it didnt have much time to work. The pushing out was agony 
but once his head was out things were easy I had 2 students watching it and they were fascinated i quıite enjoyed watching there faces lol as it was both of there first births .... Baby Alexander was 9lb 4 oz and 60cm long He had the cord round his neck but no problems and no stitches were needed A very small tear and several grazes which should heal quıckly is all Established labour was recorded at 4 hours 5 minutes , 6 minutes longer than my firsts labour ...
We are very happy and bf on demand
Heres a lil piccie of our new family
