Ok so here goes be warned its long !!

Friday 12th dec - went to the hospital with reduced movements and put on the monitor baby was fine and i was contracting so i was sent home to wait it out !

Sunday 14th morning - Hospital again with regular contractions 5 mins apart ! Told i was 3cm dialated and given a sweep sent home and told to take paracetomol ! had a huge show on the evening !

Monday 15th night - Hospital again contractions down to 3 mins apart and pains were alot worse, checked again and i was still 3cm again told to go home and wait it out , i was very disheartened and getting alittle stressed !

Wednesday 17th - Pain was so bad i couldnt take any more, my back was so painful i could hardly walk ! So again we headed off to the hospital where i was eventually admitted for observation overnight with a suspected water infection and hope things would progress. Still 3cm !!!!

Thursday 18th - by 2pm the pain was so bad i was put on the monitor to see how regular they were and it showed everytime i contracted babys heartrate was dropping so i was taken to the labour ward and given gas and air. At about 4ish they broke my waters as i was still 3cm !! i dont really remember much after all of this as things went from bad to worse !!

I was left contracting until 7.30ish still with no other pain relief , the contractions were as you would have if you were 8-9cm dialated but i was still 3cm and baby was showing signs of distress!! It was an emergancy section !! I remember being taken to theatre and given the spinal block because it hurt like hell, the screens went up and things started to happen !!

At 19.58 Logan George Walter Reeves entered the world weighing in at 6lb 1oz !

Suddenly my heartrate dropped and i had to be given adrenalin as i think they came a little close to losing me ! Unfortunatly they then realised they had left a swob inside me so i was left open while everything was recounted and xrays of me were taken, the whole thing took an extra hour and a half !
they eventually found it by my diaphram and it was safley removed .

Logan had to be taken to special care as he has a very large soft spot and the doctors have had to do ct scans and we should get the results in jan , he has also got to see a chromosones specialist as they have said he has quite prominant features so they are checking that as well !! But to me he is perfect and i really carnt believe i love him so much !

I will add some pics tomorrow when my OH has loaded then up for me !
