Thank's guy's it has been an amazing first day with my wee princess. Feeling really confident about everything and the birth was awsome depsite not being at home like I wanted. I arrived at the hospital at about 9.30am M/W put the jell stuff in then we sat back and relaxed they keep xhecking me on the moniter told me i was having regular contraction's I was not even feeling them. Started feeling them at around 2.30pm, but was not paying all that much attention as my boy's had come in for a visit. Then around 4 Mum came up and by 5 I was having pretty regular contraction's. around 7 we decied to get M/W back he arrived at 7.20pm We moved to teh labour room it was so weird cause it was the same room we had Alan in kinda freaked me out a little. M/W checked me and we were 4cm broke my water's. Got in shower till after 8pm the best thing about being in hospital contineous hot water.  . Got out around 8.15pm had some huge contraction's then I had a nap (did that with Mikey as well at this point) Then it was all on started pushing and she was in about 3
push's. Weighing 6.3lb not as small as they thought. Took so long to get the placenta out I swear this was worse then the labour pain's. Had nice hot shower gave her her first feed. And whe nI was told that Dad's were not aloud to stay in hte ward we decied at 11pm to head home. So packed everyone up and came home. Alan heard the car so he got his first cuddle even tho he was half asleep.
Thank's heap's ladies for your suppot and encouraging word's in the past week.  .
I have really learnt so much from so many of you. You are all truely amazing woman.
