Just a funny light-hearted thread..what funny or strange things did u say or do during ur labour?
I gave birth at my sisters flat (was closer to hospital than my place) and had brought a big plastic bowl with me for the car journey as i was feeling sick (as was sure id be sick as im a sicky person) and the WHOLE way through my labour (during contractions) i leaned up against the wall (in the corner of the room lol) with my head on the wall and the bowl between my chest bones and wall and my hands spread out on the wall lol. at one point near the end i made a loud deep groaning noise into the bowl...i obviously was too out of it at the time but supposedly my mum, sister and the two midwives all looked at each other and had a giggle!lol. I put the bowl down once between a contraction and i felt another coming on and started shouting "my bowl..give me my bowl" and got myself into my position lol. i gave birth in the same position..standing up against the wall.
i also kept burping and apologising through the whole thing!haha.
what about u ladies?
