Had my 2nd sweep at 4.30pm on Wednesday, woke up at 2.30am Thursday morning & was loosing a bit more of my plug (tmi) & started having irregular & not very painful contractions,
so i got up & made the kids packed lunches, washed up sorted washing (all the things i should've done the night before,
watched a bit of hollyoaks contractions were coming about every 20 minutes then all of a sudden went to 5 & 3 minutes & were more painful so at 6am i woke Dan & asked him to get the kids ready, i had a bath & the kids went to my friends.
Got to the birthing centre at about 8am contractions were 3 mins apart now, was 6cms dilated so got in the birthing pool at 9am,
the mw was lovely but really just let me get on with it, i found it a bit difficult as she never examined me again so i never got the
right your 10cms you can push now, so was a little scared to push as i thought i might do myself some damage she just told me to do what my body told me to so reluctently i pushed, & within a few minutes she was born, i just remember the mw saying are you going to pick her up, nut i was a bit out of it at that point so the mw got her from the bottom of the pool,
& i held her whilst crying of happiness & saying how tiny she looked we were shocked to later find out she weighed 9lbs!
So Livi Louise Barr my little water baby was born at 10.42 on Thursday 12th May with no pain relief, no stitches but did tear just decided against them, lost quite alot of blood while delivering the placenta but all is good & i'm healing well!
