Well after quite a traumatic birth and tough week, Im finally home with my baby girl. Lily was born at 12:59am on the 10th july! I'll write up a birth story and put pics on when I get a chance. Didnt get home til late thursday night as Lily had breathing problems and ended up in special care baby unit, I got her back at midnight on monday but we had to stay in cos her infection marker was high and she had to have 5 days of antibiotics. My poor babies been poked and prodded so much Im glad we're home and i can spoil her now!
Then I had my midwife come round yesterday and ive been suffering with these weird pains in my back in hosp but the midwife never really said nething when I told her but I sat down to tell my midwife bout my birthing experience and everything I'd gone thru in the last week and I had a huge muscle spasm in my back and really sharp pains shooting up my spine into my neck and head, it was worse then a contaction! & she said shes never seen anything like it and was worried cos I'd had an epidural so she rang hosp and I had to go back up there spent another half a day up the hosp yesterday.. I seriously never wanna c the place again lol. They dont think its epidural related just trapped nerves where ive been stressed and sitting round uncomfortabley all week!
Its the best feeling in the world thou seeing the lil person u've created
Good luck girls, and seriously sleep as much as u can now! Specially if ur breastfeeding.. I was planning on bottle feeding but as soon as I saw her I just had an overwhelming feeling too breast feed and we've both taken to it so well so Im gonna try keep it up for the few weeks!
I'll add a couple of pics that my mum had uploaded from her phone.. Havent uploaded my camera 1s yet!
Lily an hour old - shes changed so much already hehe
