Hello all just popping on to say i had my little boy on 30th June 4 days late. i was meant to be induced on monday 27th at 40+1 but they where to busy, however on examination found i was already 3cm dilated and waters bulging but they where to busy so told me to return on thursday 30th which i did.
arrived at 9.30 and was not seen on labour ward until 2.30pm. midwife joked that i had to deliver him by 7.30pm as her shift finished at 8.30.
so 3pm they broke my waters, was monitored for 30 mins then was allowed to move around so was on the ball, walking around but it did nothing.
5pm i was examined and still 3cm dilated so was put on small dose of the drip at 5.15pm
6pm came and contractions started. Hubby had to leave to pick kids up and put them to bed and was going to get back at 8pm. well it all happened so quickly after that. i was coping quite well with no pain relief but then started getting really bad pains in my back so out came the gas and air (i forgot how good it was lol) about 7pm a student midwife asked if she could deliver my baby as she needed 1 more to complete her 40th so i say yes. she was lovely.
suddenly the pain was getting worse and i coudlnt keep my bottom on the bed at 7.20pm i was 8cm dilated and then got the urge to push. 2 pushes a pant and another push and James Oliver Harry was born at 19.30pm weighing 7lb 14oz, and daddy missed it

total labour 1 hour 30 minutes lol
we got home on friday and hes soooo cute you forget how tiny babies are
