my brother was born in 1977 at 44 weeks - no induction, no drugs

me - i wasn't so easy lol
1980, due may 4 by Ob dates, may 7 by mum's. may 4, the Ob put mum in hospital and broke her waters - nothing happened. at all. for several days. Mum reckons he broke her waters so i'd be born on his date and he could do the "ner ner" thing. i dunno - possibly! On the night of May 7, the Ob turned up at the hospital, intoxicated, and got my dad to sign an authority to c/s mum the next morning under GA. i don't think they can recall if there was a specific reason - possibly the fact that the waters had been broken so much earlier. no idea why they went to dad instead of mum - possibly cos mum would have told him to bugger off!
