Congratulations on your beautiful birth! Well done! Your Harriet's story sounds a lot like my Lucy's story - and she is an absolutely beautiful girl with loads of spunk - always wanting to know what's going on. I would say that's Harriets story too - like Lucy she wasnt' wasting any time and wanted to start her life NOW!!!!
Those precipitous labours feel just like you describe - being hit by a truck!
Thank you so much everyone for taking the time to read and comment on Harriet's birth story. It is such a buzz to be able to share these sorts of things!
Nelle - your Si's birth was FULL-ON, yes, I remember! And good advice too, to take it easy, I forget to do that a lot.
Snacks - I have the most special photos of DD and DH doing the crossword together.
Milly - WOW, WOW, WOW!!! Thanks for sharing your story! We are not sure about a third, but if we are blessed with another one I don't know what we'll do.
Flowerchild - thanks for telling me about your DD Lucy. Lovely!
I laughed out loud when I read the part int he lift when you told the midwife to not touch you and then your DH repeated it to her! I can just imagine it!
Rach, thanks so much for sending me the link to this. I hear you What a fantastic job you did!! Cracked up at the part with both the mw and dh going "Don't touch her"... and bless that little old lady
What a great story, thankyou for sharing!! Love the "DON"T TOUCH ME!!"
My short birth was a long story too
I am scared now, my first was as quick as your first, quite similar too, and my OB said my next will be even quicker , hopefully next time I will make it to term!
