My midwife was lovely, she asked me if I wanted 'touching' ie back rubs or anything else and I said no.....I am like an animal when in pain I sort of go away into a corner alone to deal with it by myself and I hate anyone near me....She was lovely, just basically let me get on with it. At one point she was saying I should have been pushing but I could feel that it wasn't quite time, she didn't panic me or rush me just stood back and watched and encouraged when needed.

Ooo this is just like me. Bless DH was trying so hard to be helpful when I was at home, but it was best when he was off in the other room trying to get the kitchen sorted before going to the hospital! All the MWs seemed amazed that I barely made a peep the whole time, but I retreat within and go really quiet when in pain, which I guess is the opposite of most women compared to what I see on birthing shows! Considering I pretty much had an all-natural, practically unassisted (wasn't touch except for 1 VE) birth by accident rather than design, I'm definitely going down that route again except at home this time! :T

Was Supernanny good? GOing to watch tomorrow on 4OD. GISI, have you recognised anyone yet?

Can we go swimming every day? Finn is out cold in his basket with zero fuss!! :rotfl:

tara, I'll be praying for Poppie & DD too. Bless the little ones that have to go through so much so soon.

No Eclampsia first time only with induction
Second time BP fine but baby in distress. I have read somewhere I don't remember where that it is quite common for late babies to be in distress whether induced or not which makes me question if it is the 'lateness' that caused distress or the induction due to lateness that causes distress.You with me?

I had no eclampsia, no induction and he arrived two weeks early in distress. Bizarre!

Sami I was wondering where you were.

If this dark haired woman is on her 4th, wouldn't you think she'd be a bit quicker?

Susan - I love every single post that you make. I can tell that you really think about what you are saying and intentionally say what you mean. I think what you wrote is perfectly acceptable, you worded it very well and I agreed with it in the context of what you were saying. I would like to add that I also agreed 100% with you when you declined to re-word it.

I am sorry you have been upset, I was also a bit annoyed at the way that post was written and targetted.....You are very much appreciated on this thread and I for one would hate for you to stop posting here:)

I watched it and said to OH do I really want to do that again!

That birth was almost exactly like when I had K with the heartbeat dropping only when they said to me 'baby needs to come now' I pushed and pushed and pushed! I could never imagine saying i can't do it anymore.
I was so focused on just getting him out that when he came out and had to be resused I was in shock! They took him away down the corridor for what seems like an eternity then I heard him cry and the MW came running back along the corridor with my beautiful blue baby x

Aw, good times

eta: obv everyones birth is different incase anyone takes offence at me saying about the pushing
