Holly, it's awesome to hear your experience!! Sounds a little like mine!! I was saying to the midwife whilst I was in hospital that men come up with some STUPID things when their partner is in labour. My DH said some crackers and I would've hit him too if I was in a state to do so. He actually asked if we were allowed to bring coffee's in. Did he REALLY think he was going to be drinking a gloria jeans coffee while I gave birth?????????????? maybe birth suites should have a cafe in them....!
Anyway, so glad you had a great experience. Sorry you didn't get the water birth, save that for next time! 2.5 hours is amazing for first time! You will have to be living in the hospital next time!! xoxo
