Thanks for sharing Kathryn, I really think you should complain about that midwife...it seriously sounds like she was one of those anti drug types. Which is fine for her but not ok to force onto you iykwim. You are truly a trooper! Congratulations, and rest up girlie sounds like you need it!

GUYS CHILL! You are all freaking me out LOL, all the stresses over food and now labour lol. Honestly it can be rough hell they say its harder than a marathon but we manage to get through it, multiple times even LOL! I doubt very much Kathryn would want you all so spooked by her story

Don't get me wrong, after a 27 hr labour & emergency C-sect with Paris the thought of Labour again TERRIFIES me LOL! Especially because I desperately want a VBAC...but look at it this way its a special day because you get to hold your babies in your arms and not in your bellies

I say all this with tongue in cheek too so please don't think I am having a go at anyone LOL!

*hugs*
