Finley Steven Spooner
weight-8lb 3oz
time-3.16am
first of all just wanna say a big thank you to you all for your support and thank you's throught out my pregnancy.
After a long day cleaning i said to steve lets have an early night so off to bed we went. i knew something didnt feel right i just didnt know what. but at 10pm my waters broke. i didnt really start having much pain until about 3am.
i eventually went to the hospital about 4.30 am.
when we got to MAU i found i was already 4/5 cm dilated which i as pleased about as i still wasnt in much pain at all. but i was told my BP was high so off to the high risk labour ward i went
.
i didnt start getting really strong contractions untill about 9am so i had pethadine and gas and air. the midwife said i as labouring quite quickly so baby should be here by dinner time
.
i as pushing for a few hours with no progress and the contractions started to stop so i was injected with something to increase them. and god did they increase!!! i kinda lost control by then and couldnt cope and longer i was 2 tired to push and the pethadine had started to ware off and it was to late to have anymore.doctors decided on a forceps delivery to help me along.
the hardest thing ive ever had to do is stay still for the epidural whilst having really painful contractions.
after pushing with all i had baby Finley steven spooner was bron into my arms, he was perfect. we both cryed our eyes out with emotion. such an amazing feeling.
i suffered a 3rd degree tare, which isnt half as painful as i thought. and would do it all again tomorrow in a heart beat.
Finley is absolutely brilliant baby only waking once in the night. i cant stop smiling, being a mummy is the best feeling in the world
