i went to hospital on tuesday as i couldnt keep anything down and hadnt slept after checking me over i was told was 3cm. i was very dehydrated so they put me on a drp. i was in so much pain! wednsday at around 5 i finally got to 4cm and was sent to the delivery suit as the birth centre said i was too poorly. my contractions were threw the roof so at 9.30 we were shocked to find i was still only 4cm. i had an epi and my waters broken, she had pooped. i was still in pain even with the epi,the midwife said it happens to around 5 out of 100. the trace kept losing her so they put a clip on her head. at around 11 my tempand pluse went crazy and i blacked out. then babys heart went crazy. i was put on an antibiotic drip and after 20 minutes i blcked out again. i woke upwith about 15 people around me. i was preped for a csection, they topped up my epi but then said there wasnt enough time so gave me a general. evelyn was born at 12.41am on the 17th of april. im still in hospital and have an infection. she was 9lb3. will rewrite this when im home as this permier bedside is shite n its hard to use a touch screen with an iv.
