For those not on the fb group baby Cason was born at 6:58am on 27th weighing a very healthy 8lbs 1oz at 38+3.
I had a sweep on Wednesday, for the next 24 hours had the odd mild contraction then on the Friday night they started getting a bit more regular but still not really painful. Went to bed on Friday night. Woke up at 3 am and felt a trickle, stood up and my waters went everywhere. Contractions started within half and hour and I went straight into hospital due to my last labour being only 44 mins with twins. I was 2 cm on arrival but contracting regularly and the Intensity had really picked up. I went for a walk around the hospital which really helped and then they gave me gas and air when I got back onto delivery suite. They didn’t re examine me and just told me to go with it and soon I felt like I needed to push. I think I was pushing around 10 mins and he came out with his hands both up by his face. It was by far my most intense and painful labour so thankful it was quick. I have a graze either side where his hands were but no tears luckily. He came out looking very purple which they said was the speed and position he was born. It’s gone down a lot now but his face is still slightly dark. I’m actually feeling really well in myself just very tired. We had to stay in hospital overnight because little man has a heart murmur which is likely to be the same as his big brothers.
Hope all of the other new mamas and babies are doing well.
