Wednesday 23/5/2014 my waters went slowly at 5am I was 5 days over due so rang hospital who told me to go in wen I was all sorted so got to hospital around 7.30 ish got examined they didn't believe my waters had gone by looking at pad lol I was sure they had myself haha anyways yes they had gone so they decided to put pessery in to try stimulate contractions so I was sent to walk the hospital grounds over n over nothing happened and I was tired it was a very hot day my feet were so puffy so they said they would do the drip next morning and dan went home .
Thursday 22/5/2014 my sons 21st birthday and I wasn't there I was crying feeling so guilty for him sent him message and he sent one back saying he loved me and that I was supermam and he was dying to meet his baby sis or bro so proud of him anyways drip in at 9 on low cos of my age and cos I had lots kids already so they have to go slow , dan arrived about 10 ish no pains realy no need for g&a over the next 4 ish hours or so the drip was upped to 20 full wack and my contractions went from zero to 4 in 10 and I wasn't getting a break so they turned it down and got a gd rhythm going and I was on gas n air by then and had a shot if pethadine no idea why cos it did nothing realy and I didn't even know how many cm dilated I was lol but anyways I must av been close cos not long after I was ready to push and I think about 4 pushes later out pops my beautiful rainbow princess screaming her lungs out ❤️ que me and dan in tears so happy , my placenta came away fine phew so happy but I was bleeding afterwards quite a bit but it had seemed to stop and 2 units got ordered For me to have later on, fast forward 3 hours later I was feeling unwell sick dizzy and just not right but my kids were all there visiting me and I knew summet wasn't right I was then violently sick and I felt something come out down there and my tummy sort if jarred inside so I said to mw can u check down there so kids all got sent out and then it went all wrong I was bleeding realy heavily and all a sudden doctors mw and who knows who else ran Into room all the while my kids were outside my room that's all I kept thinking my poor kids but they got sent home bless them all and I got worked on for about 5 hours , I had gone Into shock lost 6 units of blood needed it pumped manually back in through a heat machine , all the while I was having my tummy massaged very hard on the outside and doctors manually taking clots out my foof by hand 🙈😱 it was horrific dan was by my side the whole time his face will haunt me for the rest if my life I actualy thought I was going to die I kept saying I'm scared when I wasn't out of it , they stopped the bleeding just before I was gonna be whisked away to surgery for a hysterectomy thank god , I had to have a bear hugged on me all night blow up no it things that massaged my legs to stop clots and god knows how many drips coming in to me, dan told me I had 15 docs n midwives and anethatist working on me at one point , I can honestly say I have never been so scared in all my life even last time with my retained placenta it was not a patch on this my life flashed before me , sorry for anyone that is left to give birth but this happenes very rarely and usualy more so on woman who have had many children , but hey I'm fine now I have my perfect rainbow baby girl who I am so in love with and is extra special and born on her big brothers birthday
