So i had a stretch n sweep on thursday 23/2 which said i was 1-2 cm's, not much happened that day but did lose my show! at midnight i started contracting which lasted a gd few hours over night, after losing yet more show they tailed off. Only to start back up again that morning - friday 24th.
Started off very slowly 1 in 30 until finally around 4ish they was every 2-3 mins so got OH home from work n called the hosp who told us to come in to be checked. We got to the hosp around 5-5.30ish i was checked n was 3cm's. They said they would start the labour from 4.30 as thats when cont's became regular. The hosp was absolutely packed so we was sent round to go for walks to bring on more contractions n help me dilate n i wud be checked around 10pm. at 11pm i was checked again as i was in absolute agony with the pains i assumed i was well in established labour
how wrong i was!! was stil 3 cm's. Was put on a monitor n found her heartrate dipped a few times n i was contracting 4 in 10 lasting almost a minute n half so had no time at all in between pains. I was screamin (i never scream!) about the pain in my back but also in my tummy, it was becoming clear something wasnt right as my temp was soaring too n my BP n pulse were thru the roof!
I was examined n was 3-4 cm's so taken to delivery suite where a doctor was called to check why my tummy hurt even between contractions. As i was turned from my left side to my back, i felt 'wet' n said something was coming out thinkin it was my waters, but it was all blood
i was really confused so they broke my waters n OMG the 2 midwives got SOAKED 
it literally burst out all over them, the bed, up theirs arms, on the floor 
but was blood stained. so they quickly left the room and came back with a surgeon who was blabbering away to me but i was in so much pain n high on gas n air i didnt no what he was sayin, but OH explained they was gona do an emergency c-section NOW as i was having a placenta abruption (placenta starting comin away before she was born!)
So by 2.40am on saturday 25th feb (1 day before she was due) out came our little princess screaming
all 7lb 12oz of her! She has lovely dark hair n looks the image of her big bro 
The c-section was abit of a blur all happened so fast but within minutes i was pain free and Jack was next to me, both sobbing hehe. Kaycie came out all pink and beautiful and had a very good set of lungs on her lol.
So wasnt a completely brilliant birth but im recovering well n pleasantly suprised about how small n thin the scar is and how low down it actually is.
So 1 thing we forgot was a camera... but here are a few off my fone, they were pretty rubbish quality ill try find some better ones later on
Thanks ladies for reading, sorry its so long. N this was me not saying EVERYTHING
