Baby's here at last!!!

[bev309]

Just popped on to say that I had my baby son on Thursday 01 May - was due to go in for induction that day, but he had other ideas! Woke up with contractions at 7.00 am coming roughly 10 mins apart - went in shower to get ready as hospital appointment was for 9.00am & by the time I had got out of shower, my contractions were c oming about 3 mins apart! Called hospital who said that the ward was full at the moment, but go to my appointment as planned & they would assess me from there. Called my dad to pick us up to go to hospital a bit sooner as was having about 1 min between contractions by this time, just about managed to get dressed, so off we went to hospital - had constant contractions all the way - traffic DIDN'T help - & broke my flip flop so ended being wheeled into the hospital on wheelchair shoeless!
They assessed me immediately & they didn't even mention how far dilated I was as they rushed me straight to the birth centre on the same floor, where I had 3 puffs of gas & air which made me feel ill so I gave up on that. Got onto bed on my knees with my head over the back of the bed which was upright as this was most comfortable for me. I felt a sudden urge to push & my waters broke like niagara falls with a great whoosh!
A couple of pushes later (with grunting which amused hubby no end) DS was born at 9.42 am weighing 8lb 12oz!!! (and they said he would be small so there u go!)
Had a small tear which they didn't need to stitch & NO pain relief, & was out of hospital by 4.30 pm
Will post some pics when I find my USB cable for my camera!
