I bought a latte there this morning just before Yasin had his speech therapy so unless they shut it down this afternoon it escaped the cull. Funnily enough it actually tasted much better than I expected - maybe because my expectations of Starbucks are so low that if they serve me something I can drink I'm impressed.:
LOL Nelle, you know RCH has a Maccas??? Was my saving grace when I was in there with DS :lol:
I loved seeing the birth, how amazing to share that with so many people. It did seem very weird to me, I was VERY vocal during my birth, not because I was in agony and traumatised, it really did help me through contractions to make lots of noise. (Those who know me IRL would not be surprised by that statement ;)). And mum looked very awkward in that position. I too was desperate to see the baby feed, and for them to just leave the baby alone and on her mum's chest!!! But you're right Nelle, time does get skewed after birth :).
CharlieBrownGirl, there are downsides to having an epi, and before you decide that it's what you definitely want, there is plenty of reading you can do to inform yourself of the risks to yourself and your baby, and the pros and cons. At the end of the day it's YOUR birth and YOUR baby, so totally your decision :). I had an epi (not for pain relief as such, circumstances dictated the need for it) and I will be avoiding having one again. I was not a fan.
Wow is all I can say - seemed awfully calm in the end. Interesting to read the comment history on the main site, especially when she decided to have an epi there was a few interesting comments mande. Don't think i'd be up for half the world being able to see me giving birth though.
Only negative thing I thought was why isn 't the hubby up there kissing her and the baby!
how do you get it to work???
EDIT
nevermind, found it
:clap: yay finally got to see it last night
i cried lol
