My little man was born the 17th of March, at 23.32pm! Will update more later xx

So at about 5pm I posted a thread asking if it sounded like I was having contractions as there was no regular pattern. Literately after posting they became regular :haha:! Jamie (OH) got home from work at 7pm, we decided to time them as they were quite painful by this point. They were between 4-5minutes apart lasting a minute, I got in the bath (it help a little bit) and rang the midwife centre. She asked if I wanted to go in and be checked or stay home for abit, I chose to stay home! After getting out the bath the contractions went funny, coming every minute and half but only lasting 20 - 30 seconds. They finally went back to 4 minutes, but became even more painful. My little sister came up as I hadn't even packed a bag (stupid me eh, overdue and didn't even haves bag ready!!). The contractions were coming every 2-3 minutes and were unbearable, my sister took Evie down my mums, mum and dad came up to take me to the hospital. Katie (the midwife) was rang again and told we were going in as I couldn't bare the contractions! We got to the hospital and realised we'd left an important thing at home... My notes!! Jamie and my dad rushed back t get them while I was checked. I was 5cm, Katie said it wouldn't be long and she hoped Jamie got back in time! Jamie got to the hospital at 22:10pm and I was using gas and air. Half an hour after being checked the first time I asked to be checked again, I was at 8cm!! I felt the urge to pusand Katie told me to go with my body, which I did! My waters broke, and the urge to push became so much stronger. By this time I was near enough breaking my mum and Jamie's hands. :rofl: finally after pushing for around 30minutes my little man was born at 23:32 on the 17th weighing 6lbs15oz :flower:

He still hasn't got a name, but here he is!
