So Elsie Sofia arrived on 27/5/16 at 22:33 normal delivery, by the skin of our teeth!! She was turned At 12:30 and had my waters broke shortly after, there was so much fluid it was unbelievable-no wonder I could not feel her move, at 15:30 they put up the hormone drip (left it a while as her heart rate was playing up) at 17:30 2cms and at 21:50 I was 4cms so they advised epidural so that they could monitor baby more closely, however at 22:10 I was 10cms and pushing, she arrived 22 mins later. Much different to 3 hours of pushing with first baby, but the speed of it sent me into slight panic and I was listening to no one, got away with a tiny tear that they said didn't need suturing! She's was 6lbs 4oz, very different to the 6lb 9pz they estimated her at 3 weeks ago!! It has been an intense week but I'm so glad I kept on at the doctors as I was not feeling her move-we now know why lots and lots of fluid with small baby but feel better I wasn't going crazy!!!
