 Topic: This time five years ago
Posted: 11 November 2008 at 5:52pm |
I was at National Womens Hospital in the delivery suite having some rather painful contractions...
My mum was there and my husband and my SIL. Think everyone else had left by that stage. The contractions were drug induced so i was bed ridden and being monitored.... Still a long way to go yet!

9.30... let me see. they were bumping up the syntocinin, getting to the upper limit... the visits by the three stooges (the team of docs who come in threes!) are getting more frequent and i am on my third (i think) midwife by now.

i do it every year!
he's here now...and the yuck, and the pain and the blood are all irrelevant. he came out with a push and a pull and my mum cut the cord.
i have a tear in my eye just thinking about it all.

awwww......
Every year the night before C's birthday I write her a letter, that always makes me cry ....
Its cool that you'll be able to tell him (if he ever asks) the story of his birth ....I dont think telling Caitlyn " i begged your grandmother to drown me and she refused " is what she wants to hear...but you have so much more detail , am v impressed
