Yay - Sorry not been on, been hectic over here :lol:

Finley was born at 1.10am 29.10.11 after a 1.5 hour labour!

I Went to hospital Friday night as I thought waters were leaking, turns out it was just my show. I Was still 4cm from my antenatal so was just having BH's. They wanted to keep me in, but all niggles had stopped!

Next day, decided to go shopping, do my usual bits & not a sign in sight. Was watching TV at night & the contractions came straight at 2 minutes apart & a minute long. Wasn't painful but I was aware they were there.

Off we go to hospital, walk into labour ward to a SCREAMING woman which completely threw me off my positive attitude (she scared me alot)

MW wanted to put me on a CTG but I just wanted to stand & walk around, so she examined me to find me fully dilated & then my waters went 'pop'

Started pushing, i did complain i did not want to do it any more (apparently my words were 'it is not bloody working') :lol:

Head popped out & I shot more water literally up at the midwife where I had to stop and say 'I Am sorry about that'

Then I stopped as I had to tell her I had a little poo :lol:

Then came Finley 20 minutes after arriving! :)

Placenta was huge & had to have an IV to get me contracting as it wouldn't come out!

Sent to ward & Finley to nursery and he came to me at 7am where we chilled till hometime . I Came home last night & we've mastered our first night at home!

Thankyou soooooooooo much for all your support, well wishes & advice! So grateful!
