hello again everyone! possum when is your baby due??
my friend was 10 days overdue and was booked in to get induced on monday night. yesterday i got a text message saying the induction had failed and that she was having a ceasarian...she had a little girl and both mum and bubs are doing fine..but she didn't get to hold the baby straight away..i'm not sure why i needed to tell you guys this..it's just been on my mind all night
I had a drug free labour with DD#2. THere wasnt much time for drugs as i arrived at the hossi fully dilated ready to push ( had her in emergency, no time to get me upstairs to maternity ward).
I am gearing up for another drug free labour. A epi has never, ever crossed my mind and i dont think i will ever opt for that. Even during DD#1 labour which was pretty traumatic (retained placenta, post partum haemorraging, didnt get to hold baby either) i had pethidine...i felt crap afterwards.
With DD#2 i felt like i could have walked out of the hospital that afternoon. I looked fresh, i felt great - 30 mins after she was born. Even my DH couldnt believe how content, relaxed i was.......for me....drugs are the last, last option if all else fails (i.e my mind !!!!)
