Hey girls! Just thought id write seen as iv got abit of time before Rileys feed!!
Long reeeaaaddd.. Apologies in advance haha
Well, yesterday.. I decided to do some walking while watching eastenders and corrie, just walked round my livin room, then all of a sudden i heard a POP. as u girls will know as i put up a post about it haha
Then panicked! But thought, wait, i want to give birth.. Carry on walking beth!!! So i did
then noting
So i sat down to ring my mum, and had an almighty contraction! My mum was like oh hell im on my way. Anyhow, got to hospital at 11-11:15 and got examined and to my delight was 5cm! Couldnt beleive it, as - yes it was paiful.. But not 5cm worth of pain!!
Anyhow, it got to about 1am and i could hear a women screamin, and it was scarin the lift outta me!! I was doin so good (if i do say so myself) about no pain relief, i just went into my own zone and breathed thru each contraction. THEN at about half 2ish, i begged for an epidural and my mw said no! Lmao. So had some gas and air which made me fly without bloody wings! Haha then it wore off :/ Then she said okay, think its time to push! So i went onto my side, and i didnt push til about 3:15am, was too scared haha. Then my body just did it for me!! (2nd time mummys will know what i mean - that urge that u cant control!!!) then i pushed with all my might, and she said she could see his head! Another push...his head was crowning and that unmistakable ring of fire!! Then i heard a pop and was so scared cos i thought id torn!!! But no, some more waters wer gushing out, then his head came, and honestly...it took kore effort to get his shoulders out!! So with a couple more pushes he was out!!!!!
8lb 5oz. No stitches. No tear. No graze!! Couldnt beleive it! But he swallowed abit of Waters and had pooed in them so he was abit mucusy, and needed a bit of oxygen. But hes fine now
Depending on how he feeds at 11, i may be able to go home today!!!
I feel fab! Absoloutly amazing. Not sore, just feel abit tender on my flabby belly haha.
Oh and my 2 year old said ''banana'' this mornin and i missed itttt
hes been tryna say that for months! Lol. But anyhow, 6 hours from start to finish and i cant beleive hes here.
I would defo reccomend walking to help bring labour!!
It was so quick though and i think thats what made it more painful, but im soo proud of myself that i did it!!
Thank you for all your messages too!! Means soo much!!!
