Hi Helen,

I had no idea that my swelling could get worse post-birth! It was a real shock to the system! I'd been retaining an awful lot of fluid during Jacob's PG (I lost 15.5kg in only 2w or so post-birth) but blew up like nobody's business whilst in hospital and my BP went through the roof at the same time.......

I will be having a c/s with this little sausage and she will be born at Calvary. I don't know if Bella was born at THPH, but I wasn't very happy at all there when Jacob was born......I had some shocking midwives! Although I guess you can get that anywhere huh!?
