Hey I had a little boy called Ryan on 9th march 8lb 4oz, he was born at 3.16am. I had the show on the Tuesday then early hours Wednesday around 1.30am i started with lower back pains. My Mum suggested that evening that i could be in labour so i went to the hospital to see if i was, the early hours of Thursday to find i was 1-2cm dilated. I went back home and was trying to time the contractions they were every 5 mins then 4 then 3 then 5 again, in the end i just went back into hospital seem it was around 30 mins away. Apparently i was having mini contractions inbetween big ones. went into the labour ward around 4.20pm Thursday afternoon when i was around 6 cm dilated, the little man was in no hurry to arrive (he was falling asleep during contractions lol), i was trying to push for nearly two hours but his head was tilted. In the end i had forceps assistance and then i had to go into theatre to be stitched up. I lost a pint and half of blood and now im anemic, Im on iron tablets now. Poor little man has colic but other than that his great. I just got the baby blues which is normal, wouldn't change him for the world though, he was worth all the pain (suprisingly kept calm all the way through!!) I aint slept much since starting labour so my mum and dad looked after him on friday (good old grandparents, even though i couldnt properly sleep coz i missed him so much). xx
