Heres a pic! Going to miss you lot! Good luck with all your labours xxx
Birth story
So the day before I had A lovely quiet day with my OH, My mum has taken the kids for the day for our final day together before baby was born. Once they were home we had some food and went up to bed. I felt uncomfy and heavy but nothing really different.
At 3'oclock I woke up to a contraction and turned over and my waters broke I rang my mum and MIL and they both headed over, my mum stayed with my boys whilst my MIL took us to the hospital. It took about half an hour to get there and I was still having mild pains but I wasn't sure if they were real or not!
Once we were there the midwife said usually they don't check u until they really need to because of infection but because of my track record of fast labours she decided to! So I was 4cms so was in active labour! Yayy! But as soon as she put the cover back over me my pains were coming thick and fast! I asked for an epi but got laughed at haha! The midwife quickly ran out to get all the things and I could feel my body already starting to push! She got back just intime to deliver her and MIL just got back from the vending machine haha!
She was born at 5.17am.. all in all a quick birth! Sofia was fine and I had no cuts and didn't need stitches
After a few hours we were told we could go home, but on the way to the car I fainted!! My chest also felt like someone was sitting on me! They kept me in over night and I am now home, still having the syptoms when I stand up but not quite as bad!
Good luck everyone! x
