OMG glad she was born safe and that you are both well. She is beautiful. I have had an emergency section due to fetal hr dropping and it is not good :( When my little girl was born last year she stopped breathing a few minutes after her delivery but that was due to shock at being born so fast! Scary stuff indeed but glad we both had the best outcome xx
 
Sorry the birth was so scary, glad everything is okay though! She's so lovely, congratulations.
 
Wow, what a traumatic experience :hugs: Glad to hear she is safe and sound though! Congrats!
 
Oh my goodness! I didn't even realise I was holding my breath while reading that until I read that the alarm had stopped and I let out a huge gush of air! Thank god you're both okay! She's gorgeous though, congratulations! xx
 
Oh boy... So so relieved that u and ur gorgeous lil girl are both doing fine... Alhamdolillah....

It was so scary reading about your experience!!
 
What a horrible experience :( but at least a happy ending! Well done you. And that is quite possibly, honestly, the prettiest little baby I have ever seen!


Take care and good luck xxx
 
That sounds so frightening! Glad everything turned out ok. Congratulations, she's beautiful!
 
Thank you all for your comments :-)

It's day 6 now and me and dh still feel very much in shock, I'm quite tearful and can't talk about it much. We've been offered post traumatic stress counselling through our hospital but I think for now we're going to try and put it behind us. Robyn is doing amazingly though, the thought that we nearly lost her makes me feel physically sick
 
Be gentle on yourselves. What you're feeling is completely normal. If you find you really can't put it behind you, then definitely seek help. Also remember that you might not be able to simply get over it-a traumatic birth is just that, traumatic. Your body will be in shock from the surgery, and you've got a newborn baby to look after, too. The weeks will get easier, and hopefully you're physically already feeling better than you were. But remember that you've had major surgery, a long pregnancy, and a traumatic experience. It's ok to be a bit shell shocked :flower:
 
what a scary experience. I am so glad you have her safe and sound now. She is a beauty.
 
Oh my goodness! You poor woman, I think I'd have had a heart attack! She must be worth every second however, she's an absolute beauty, congratulations.
Xxx.
 
Wow, that sounds very scary. :( I'm so relieved you're both okay but can imagine you're feeling very mixed emotions about the whole experience. Wishing you a speedy recovery. Your little girls are precious.
 
Thanks to all for the lovely comments. It's still giving me nightmares, but feeling better every day :)
 
Congratulations on your little treasure! I'm so sorry you had such a traumatic birth though. Big hugs to you!
