Any Scottish April 2013 babies out there??

lol hey ladies. I just read through quite there. I'm doing ok. I was contracting pretty fast lol. Adding my story for you to sleep..

Friday even i was just about to stand up and go pee after watching eastenders as you do lol. As i stood up this gush of liquid came running down and i said to Ryan ( i think i just wet myself but im not sure it was even pee) so i wobble to the loo. (If my waters, no pee oh crap) lol He rang his mum and i rang my mum while sitting on the loo. My plug was coming out as i wipe also. I was leaking quite alot of fluid which was still going as i got to hospital. Ryan rand the hospital up for me as i couldnt get out from being stuck inthe toilet and was told to come right now. We waited for his mum to pick us up which was just after 9 i think it was.
We picked up my mum and then headed to the hospital.

I was having contractions about a mind after my waters went and each one was getting stronger and they were coming closer together to.

We arrived at the hospital and i struggle to get out the chair as i was still leaking fluid i can to take a toilet with me so i didnt soak the car.

Waited for about 15-20 mins before getting seen as i stood up to follow the lady i had another big gush got to the loo and i had to pee into a bowl for them to check it :S lol my pj's were completely soaking (also should mention that i had changed my underwear like 3 times before leaving the house. My first pair of pjs were soaked so i put leggins on they were soaked so another pair pjs to the hosp lol).

Was then taking into another room to have my cervix checked and she felt around my bump. She said that paige was lying in breech position and was going to get someone else to check also as i told her about my 36 weeks app and my midwife noting it down as she was head down still :s i then got a scan to get her position and it was right she was breech. Heading back to the room i was in i was having a very strong contraction and could barely move. When my cervix was checked i was 2cm (i forgot to say this first) we waited in the room for a bit as i was still contracting strong, was giving pain killers which never kick in. I was then told id have to have a section and they told me what was going to happen etc. I had little cry to myself was i was scared to hell of having a section....

Some guy came in and told me what was going to happen when i got up there and how much longer i had to wait until they were prep up. Was about 10-15 mins later before we were taking up stairs. Have to say once my back gown came off all my modest went out the window .

I was put on a bench for the to put the epidural in my back. was little sore as you have you have you back arched right and i was trying not to focus on my contractions at the same time.


[Baby woke up lol so its taking extra 40 odd mins to get this post finished]

Finally after getting those jags in my back and helped to lay down and wired up to machines. My op started.

By 00.10am Paige was born into the world 30th March 2013 weighing in at 6lb 10oz (midwife said she'd weight 8 pound something lol)

Took ages to stitch me back together and we were off to a on site thing as they could get my heartrate monitor right through the op so i was hook to a monitor for a while before being taking of onto a labor ward.

Last few days have been a total blur but it was worth it. although on the 3rd i was really constipated and felt like crap and had mention to the midwife about going to the loo so much i did had some diarrhea so i was moved into a single room with a toliet attached. Felt like i had a virus because they had to wash there hands coming in and out or the room and wear a apron to. they thought it could have been something else but im glad it wasnt. was hard to go to the loo with a baby and no one to watch her lol most of the time it was gas trapped lol but it was super on comfy.

Glad im home now, Paige is a handful but i wouldnt change her for the world.
 
Aww Christine, that must have been so scary! Especially since she was head down at 36 weeks, the wee madam! Think she obviously just wanted to make a grand entrance! Glad you're both ok though. Makes me all the more impatient to meet James! Xx
 
thanks hun lol

I'm now little worried as my scar is bleeding a little think i over did the moving around :(
 
Just take it easy and give yourself time to heal love. Make Ryan do all the running around! Is he on paternity leave now? Xx
 
he is off for 2 weeks yeah. I will just asked him when he is making tea lol as im hungry. Now that i dont have her in my belly i dont feel so hungry no more and i was eating alot less also :) hope that shows all round lol x
 
Sorry for the late reply. Did he make your tea? J expects his on the table now I'm on mat leave lol. To be fair, he hoovered the whole flat tonight cos I can't really manage, we gave someonecoming to view our flat tomorrow. I did everything else though! Xx
 
Congrats cherrybump yeah fr another baby not long till we've all had babies :) xx
 
Morning girls.

Need to have a bit of a vent here. We have DSS this week for his easter holidays and are taking him to Nottingham with us at the weekend. John is working Tues-Thurs this week cos he doesn't have a lot of holidays left before May and he wants to keep some for later in the year. As such, I'm on babysitting duty and safe to say I'm beginning to feel like the evil step mum!!

Don't get me wrong, I get on with DSS well but we have someone coming to view our flat at 1pm so I'm trying to keep the place tidy and hoovering is a bit of a struggle for me these days. So 4 times this morning already I've had to tell DSS to stop mucking about with the dogs cos it gets their hair everywhere. Then he waits til go to tidy the bedroom/bathroom and starts again!! And yesterday I had to get J to have a word with him cos when he went to the toilet he peed all over the bowl (and I mean right under the seat towards the cistern) and left it like that. J was like "oh he's just a kid", I'm sorry, but he's 13 in about 6 weeks!

Don't get me wrong, he had a really shit time from about 9yrs to now because J's ex wouldn't let him see his dad for almost 2 years, and he's moved house and schools about 4 times since then as well, and I know he can't help how his mum has raised him but even simple stuff like he never says please or thank you. At the age of almost 13, I have to remind him to say please and thanks when we eat out or whatever. We also got to my mum's on Xmas Day last year and the first thing he said to her was "Dad says you've got a present for me". My mum was really taken aback cos she expects that from my 4 year old nephew but not DSS. I haven't told John any of this last bit cos I know he feels guilty enough at not being there and if he had been there, things would be different.

I just feel like the big bad step mum all the time. 'm also well annoyed at his mum cos for a week with us (including a weekend away) she sent him here with 3 trousers, 4 t-shirts, and wait for it, 4 pants and socks!! Said we can do a laundry for him!! WTF??? I don't mind washing his clothes but when we're stayng in a hotel for the weekend????

Raaaaaaaaaaarrr!!!

Vent over lol. Sorry girls, just had to get it off my chest! :wacko:
 
sorry to hear you having a tough time just now Arlene. Wow that boy doesnt have matters that pretty shocking. My brother is in his 20's and still pee's on the darn seat :s and sometimes doesnt even flush :S ive complain to my mum about this so many times but he just wont listen or tidy up after himself. So bloody lazy. xxx
 
I feel a bit better about it now I've had a vent!! Lol. I spoke to my brother as well who has two stepkids that are 16 and 18. The 18yr old he's never had a problem with, said it's been like having a wee brother for the last 12 years. His step daughter though, he still has problems with her! And it's not just him either, her mum and Nana have issues with her too but that's another story. Suppose it's just nice to know I'm not alone!

John told me he has text Cameron though since this morning and told him he needs to help me and not stress me out cos I'm preggers and tired. Lol. I just don't like it coming across like I'm bad mouthing him cos I know John feels bad about not being there after the split even though he wanted to see him.
 
Aww there is only so much you can do yourself hun. I hope he helps you out while his dad isnt there to. xx
 
He's taken the dogs out lol. John has gone out to cadets tonight and taken Cameron with him. Think he knew I needed some time to myself! Lol.

Love the pictures of Paige on facebook by the way!! Super totie! Xx
 
Awww good you can have some chill time to yourself lol.

thanks hunni she is super tiny still cant believe she's here. I was hoping i'd get to see Anne as one of the midwives that comes to see me but nope seen other ladies :( was going to get her a thank you card lol xxx
 
Treated myself to a curry from tesco for tea and juat had two pancakes with jam with my cup of tea. Been watching Greys Anatomy all night :)

Is it the same midwife that will see you next time as well? I was telling my mw, Briege, about you and emma and your shock deliveries! Lol. xx

Aww arlene. I don't really have advice because Shaun is only 7 but I can tell you that Shaun is an absolute angel of a child and even he pees all over the toilet despite being repeatedly told not to. He also rolls about on the rug with the dog and is super messy and again, my complaints fall on deaf ears. I think it's just a boy thing!!

I've been putting skirting and coving up all day with Stephen. We started at 10am and I have only just finished and got into the bath. I'm all sore and have scabby hands and friction burns on my legs from being on my ball all day but it must have done me good because i just lost another huge chunk of plug.
 
Ooh exciting Laura!! I'm sure the nursery looks fab now too!! Xx
 
It's getting there :) carpet fitters due between now and 3pm :) then we can build the furniture and hang the curtains and lightshade and stuff like that. I'm so happy it's finally coming together!
 
the one we had for parenting class lol She's my midwife but ive not seen her since my 36 weeks app. i was hoping just for a wee chat up with her lol Maybe she'll be one of the other ones that come out to see me :s who knows. Ohh paige slept better last night thing we're getting this hang of it and she drinks loads more milk lol x
 
Hi girls. How is everyone?

We're in Nottingham for the weekend for hockey :) No sign of James yet which is good for the moment! Although come Monday night I'll be desperate for him to appear! Lol xx
