Congratulations to Kirsty!!!

Thanks Mzze! I didnwonder as we'd not heard from her! She deserves her baby so chuffed for her!

Lol Sammi only reason I did that stuff is cos I'm so fed up needed to do something to take my mind off labour! I feel like my body has led me on - labour tease or what?!

 

[Mizze]

Ness how disappointing!

Im trying to pack Christmas presents and have managed to lose my Mum's! Cannot think what I have done with it!

Thanks Mizze Congrats to Kirsty!

Ness, I've just had a mega tidy up aswell, I'm so bored now only been off work 3 weeks and the house is spotless and because OH works shifts I don't know what to do with myself when he's at work!

Pixxie - Well done on the no pain relief birth wow! Did the water birth help I've been thinking more about trying this if the birth pool room is free at my hospital when I go into labour they only have one.

 

[Mizze]

Tierney I have been thinking about that too - Im not entirely sure because I was thinking of using a TENS machine too. Obviously I cant do both!

YEY!! Congrats Kirsty!

I found the tens helpful in early labour Mizze, but by the time it gets really bad nothing helps to be honest. I wish i didn't have pethidine but i was so exhausted, when she said have it to sleep, i couldn't say no and it did bugger all anyway!

[Tierney]

yeah Mizze I thought about the tens machine too but a friend said it didnt really work for her I think you need to use it from as soon as the contractions start to get the benefits from it x

 

[WILSMUM]

Yay!! Congrats Kirtsy!!!!

i used a tens with DS and tbh I thought it was rubbish - did bugger all and just got really annoying and for some reason when I was in labour with him I couldn't talk and form sentences so I couldn't ask anyone to take it off so just ended up pulling and yanking at it until someone realised and took it off for me!!!!

I baked a victoria sponge earlier and its amazing if I do say so myself!!! Am so chuffed with myself being able to look after Ailsa AND bake a cake - there is no way that DS would have let me do that when he was a baby!
Mmmmm shes letting off rather a stink atm but am reluctant to change her bum just yet cause everytime u think shes finished pooing and start changing her as soon as u wipe her bum it starts her off again so u end up sitting there for 10 mins watching her poo!!!!! Nice!!!

 

[Pixxie]

I am glad i only had a tiny graze and small skin tear, she said she didn't need to stitch it, but that it would heal quicker if she did so i had one stitch.
How long were you pushing ducky and pixxie?

I was pushing for just under an hour but it felt like years

Thanks Mizze Congrats to Kirsty!

The pool really helped, I was about to ask for gas an air when the midwife said I could get in. Once I was in I changed my mind, the water made it much more bearable xxx

 

[Mizze]

Yes my Auntie has one (A TENS) and is supposed to be dropping it over - its been used in about 6 labours so far. Trouble is the mw said to get the absolute most benefit you can use it before labour starts to help build up a tolerance. Am really undecided on it - but there is only 1 pool so there is no guarantee on the day who gets it and who doesnt?

Ooh decisions decisions!

I must be weird i thought the pushing went really quick... after i said, wow that was quick how long was i pushing? Just over an hour! Felt like 10 mins to me!

 

[Tierney]

If you dont have to buy one Mizze I'd use the tens at home first and see how you go with it. We only have one birth pool at our hospital aswell so hoping its free when I go into labour i'd love to try it

[Mizze]

Id love to try the water too.

Was having a chat with my sister about it the other day (2 kids)

She didnt like using warm/hot water at all during her labours she found it really annoying BUT we worked out she isnt one much for using bath's to relax. She never lasts more than a few minutes. Me I LOVE baths I can stay for hours if I have a book and I do find it helps with aches and pains. So Im thinking Id be a good candidate for a pool - hot water does relax me so FX thet pool is empty when I get there - must remember to pack something in my bag for it otherwise I will be in there naked and im not sure im ready for that!!

The water is lovely, i had it boiling hot and they were telling me off...lasted 15 mins in the tub tho...then my body started pushing!
Didn't want to give birth in the bath tub!
