Well if any of you saw my thread about my waters going they definately did. Fiest off all let me start by saying i was told by 3 different midwifes towards the end of my pregnancy that baby would be about 6 -6.5lb, and was measuring 3cm bwhond at every appointment.
Contractions started at about midnight and were instantly 4 mins apart. Went in at 230am was 2cm and got sent home. By this time my contractions were 1-2 mins apart lasting over a minute and were very very painful. Went back in about 6am and was 3cm. Midwife did a stetch and sweep without telling me and i was having a contraction at the time she did it and that petrified me the pain was unbelievable i was sobbing telling her to stop and she didnt for what seemed like ages. Even my mum and OH were in tears at the pain i was in. Anyway she stretched me straight to 4cm and i went to the lovely midwife led unit rooms with pools sofas etc etc. Tried the pool and didnt really like it. I was dong better on the birthing ball so stayed on threre with just gas and air. By 12pm wasb6cm amd was in such excrutiaing pain i couldnt believe it. My contractions were never ending and i was starting to get scared of the next one. I was sceeaming so loud and they wrre lasting a good 2 mins. The tiny break i.gor.in between was spent crying and brggingvfor pain reloef. which i was told no to because babys heartrate wasnt accelerating with contracions. I was bwgging for an epidural and they told me that cos of her irregular heartbeat i had to be moved upstairs to consulant led care. She examined me before i went and i was 8cm. I was doubled kver in pain and ddint have a clue where i was or even who i was!! It was getting unbearable and they wheeled me into a lift on my bed to take me up to clc. All this time imvscreaming the corridoors down and sobbing to oh to help me and get me oain relief which was upsetting him because i was so upset and scared. Anyway after contractions on contraction i had the epi. only 2cm to go. By 7pm i was fully and they said i could push. I pushed so so hard for 2 straight hours and she just wasnt coming down. I was in a terrible state i was soaking from the heat and stress and i wasbpusjingbso hard cos they said if i didnt get her down theyd be doing section or forceps which i was petrified of. Anyway nothing was happening and the whole team cmebin and started explaining about forceps. I was sobbing my hwart out saying nobididnt want them i didnt wanna be cut i was hysterical. The whole pregnancy my biggest fear was forceps. Rhey basically told me i had no choice it was either forceps or csection.. I was forced to sign the form for forceps whilst insanely crying and begging OH not to let them take me to theatre - he was crying with me cos i was in such a state and my mum had to leave cos she couldnt watch me like that... Anyway OH told to scrub up for theayre. I was wheeled though the hospital screaming in fear saying i coulsnt go throufh with it and crying my eyes out on OHs shoulder him cryinf with me. I was taken into theatre and spinalbput in ready for incase i had emergency csection. Ivwas completely numb but still tellingball the doctora that im not doing it and sobbing so much. Forceps were put on much tobmt fighting and crying and i was given episiotomy. with 3 pushes she was out. She was pulled so tightly on her face her skin was overlapping and they had to manually strerch it out. She had a bust lip cut nose and line down her forehead and cheek from the way the forcep was put on her and the strength it was pulled at. She was so swolleneverywhere and her face looked battered and bruised. And guess how muvh she weighed. 9lb3oz. Seriously she was massive. I was tiny all through ny pregnancy and she was massive. I ciulsnt believe she was mine!! They told me in the end if i had have carriwd on pusjing her head coud have ripped me apartbof got completely stuck in my pelvis as my body is tiny. I was stitched and taken to recovery. Millie jade was norn at 21:12 on21-5-12 - freakt! My experience of labour wasbhorrible. There are parts i dont remember because i was in so much pain i vouldnt think of anything.else. Me and baby are both on antibiotics sobhave to stay in at least til friday. She is doing brilliantly shes beautiful loads of hair her bruises are starting to ease now aswell shes feeding brilliantly and sleeping well. Im on a ward where the woman next to me snores so loud she cant even hear her baby ceying when he wakes for a feed.
I am slowly getting iver what happened and im so glad shes here safe and sound. It horrendous but Id do it all again for her. I love her to bits. We are missing daddy as hes only allowed in 9-9 in the days and its hard thru the nights as i cant walk properly yet and am very swollen.
Wanted to telk my real tale of events cos i never thought it would happen like that for me. Hope i didnt put too many of you off because not every birth is like that and for a very lite girl like me a 9lber was very hard to handle!
Sorry about spelling im in my phine and im falljng asleep while typjng.
