Hi everyone just home from hosp yesterday.
My baby arrived 6.49 Wed 14th June . He's so perfect & we're bothy mad about him. Had a show early hours Tues morn & again Tues eve. Went to hosp for 9pm Tues night. Had fairlybad back pain had benn using my breathing & exercise ball at home to ease it. Had got quite intense bu once I gotin car seemed to ease a bit. Arrived at hosp about 9 they examined me but I wasnt dilated. Offered for me to stay as I am 30 miles from hosp but I decided to go home for a few hours sleep. We headed for home but only got a couple of miles up road & pain intense gain my gut instinct said to head back for hosp. We did but they examined me agin & Istill wasnt in proper labour. Put me on a ward & did trace for a while. Pain got very bad mainly back my hubbie was great rubbing my back & calming me down. I used my breathing but was getting tired. Asked for epidural but they couldnt give it to me on that wardthey wouldnt send me to delivery ward until I was 3cm &could get it there. Between 12 & 4.30 I went from 0 to 10cm without them realising & wanting to push . Was sent to delivery but it was too late for epidural used gas & air & pushedfor next 2 hours. Hard going as baby's head turned & stuck at one stage but was all worth it in the end when our little fela was born 8lb 9 perfect & healthy. Thank God.I'm so happy. Thanks to ev 1 , this forum kept me going from miscarriage to ttc to here xxx
