I went to the hospital with reduced movements for the third time, I was on the monitor baby was fine. Then I saw a doctor who said due to the amount of times I'd been in they would like to induce. So the next day I went back in. They monitored me first. For two hours as babies heart beat was all over the place and they were worried.
Once baby seemed happier they put in the pessary which was particularly painful as my cervix was right back. They monitored baby every four hours till 4.30am the next day, things had kicked off and my cervix had come forward and they were ready to break my waters. I went to labor ward were they put me on the bed as they needed to monitor baby, babies heart beat had dropped again (but not dangerously low) but enough for a doctor to come in. They broke my waters and gave me gas and air. I wanted something stronger but they weren't keen as the drug (diamorphine) could mask what was really happening with baby.
So I chose not to have it and went on with the labor. Very quickly I was ready for pushing by 7.45am and I had her at 8.21am
She is perfect
