Hi, I was due 24/05/14. Went into labour 26th May and had to have an emergency C-section and my little girl was delivered on the 27th May at 10.58pm. I lost 2 litres of blood and had to be put on oxygen overnight with iv drip and ended up in hospital for a week completing 2 blood transfusions and a leg doppler ultrasound and a VQ scan (radiation) after a suspected blood clot. My little girl and I are so extremely lucky as after the C-section the surgeons found out that the umbilical cord was 2 times the length of what it should have been and had a regular knot in and also a True Knot but also wrapped around my daughter's neck. My little girl is perfectly fine, had a day in a UV cot due to slight jaundice but is doing well. I am so very lucky I was took for an emergancy cesarean as It could have ended up completely different with devestating results.
