My beautiful baby girl 'Tilly Rose' arrived on her due date (17th march), and did she arrive in style!!!!:
I was having regular contractions from 2am that morning but nothing too strong, by lunch time i thought it was time to head to the hospital, being that this was my 3rd pregnancy i thought i new the pains were bad enough to go in and maybe start some early pain relief, i was wrong and only 1cm, although i thought this was strange i went home. Within about 2 hours the pains were unbareable and in my words " i dont care if im only 2cm i need some gas and air". by the time we got in the car and set off the traffic was pretty bad, pretty when your on all fours on the back seat screaming like a banshy!! My sister had come with us to bring the car back (thank god) and was doing the rubbing back and talking through the pains thing! Then all of a sudden i needed to push....and did, so Tilly arrived on the back seat of our ford focus as we pulled into the car park of hospital, my sister was amazing and quickly wrapped her in her (new) cardigan that she pointed out had yet payed for untill my husband ran into the hospiatal and got a midwife. Cord was cut and placenta delivered all in the car park while any one who had come out for a cheeky ciggy could watch At the time it was the scariest moment of my life but one i will never forget!!!
Tilly was fine, and perfect in every way!! cant say the same about my sisters cardigan
