Gracie Tanya Christine Garrett was born on the 12/02/08 at 20:08pm, she weighed 7lbs14oz and is 52cm long, she has a full head of dark hair and is the most perfect thing i have ever seen! =]
About the labour,
I had a 'show' about 11.30pm on the 11th feb, my contractions started about midnight and i managed to sleep through them till 4:30am when they started to get stronger, i went into hospital about 10:30am and was examined, to my horror i was only 1 and a half cm dilated! lol i was taken off all pain relief because it was too soon then stayed in the ward all day my contractions kept getting stronger and i kept getting louder!! lol
about 17:30 my waters broke and then the real pain started i was taken up to the delivery room at about 18:45 and started using the gas and air about 19:00, i was then examined again and was 6cm dilated, i was then given pethadine injection and she was finally born at 20:08pm.
i had slight trouble with the afterbirth as i wasnt contracting properly but all was sorted out and i left hospital the next day at about 15:30.
