i made my own labour aid incase i was in for another long labour, turned out to be a pretty fast one but i had my drink anyway.

from memory.... juice from a few lemons, crushed magnesium/calcium tablets, ment to help with pain and reduce chance of bleeding, honey for energy. mixed with water. google labour aid. it wasnt the tastiest as the tablet tasted a bit yuck, but a bit more honey would have fixed that!

it was good to know i had something to keep my energy levels up and i couldnt eat casue i had such a dry mouth. and it gave me something to focus on while i was having my early contractions, pacing round the kitchen, breathing through contractions, juicing lemons!!
