Well here goes . . . . .
I got woke up with a contraction at about 5amish wednesday night i thought it was ibs but when the pains started coming every 7mins i thought it might be labour but as id had false starts before i didnt really believe it. I had a good clear out about 10am so it kinda confirmed it for me. I called the hospital about 1pm but they told me to stick it out at home as the contractions wasnt regular enough but i was in agnony i was just coping with the pains. My mom came over to help out but took benn home with her so i could have some peace. The contractions got more intense and closer together at 6pm so i called the hospital and said im coming like it or not lol. I got there at 7pm and i was 5cms and had a very soft cervix my waters still hadnt gone i said id hold out for an epidural and tried gas and air which just made me sick so gave it a miss. Well i had a contraction at 8.20pm and as it was about to end my waters broke the pain was so intense and i started screaming for an epidural. The midwife said you have one option that is push her heads out so gave two pushes and she was out i didnt tear or anything and had no pain relief still cant believe shes here and how quick she arrived! Im so made up i cant stop smiling or staring at her. She was born at 8.22pm and weighed 6lb 5oz shes so small and looks just the same as her brother. I actually cut the cord aswell! Benn is so pleased his a sister and so proud bless him. Ive forgot how to add pictures so will add them when ive got some spare time xx
