Born Friday 20th February 2009 At 8:44am Weighing 9lbs 3oz
She weighed the EXACT same as Lovella did at birth! Good, quick labour at a birthing centre using gas & air for the last hour.. ( i must say.. i think its crap! )
Very mild contractions woke me at 1:32am Friday morning then became regular at 1:55am, coming every 4 minutes. They intensified at 6:20am, and started coming every 2 minutes at 6:40am. Luke rang my mum to come & stay with Lovella ( My 14 month old ), then rang an ambulance, by now there was hardly a gap between contractions & everything became a mad rush - with me becoming very abusive lol. Got to the birthing centre about 7:10am. Was examined at 8am and was 5cm.. Then started using gas and air for a few contractions which i found to be absolute rubbish! I suddenly started pushing whilst kneeling over the chair on the floor & couldnt control anything that happened from that point on, My body literally took over. It was amazing & something i didnt experience in my first labour. I got on the bed and just went with it, Just 6 minutes later at 8:44am my baby girl arrived into the world a healthy 9lbs 3oz Pleased to say i had no tears, scratches etc & needed no stitches The after care was just brilliant with such lovely midwives too.
Lovella is absolutely brilliant with her new little sister & has surprised me by how gentle & understanding she seems to be at such a young age. She strokes her constantly, saying "Awwwww" and smiling. Adorable
