Awesome job! Well done to persevere through such a long labour - such a wonderful reward in the end!

I came to this birth story via your post in the thread regarding private obstetric vs midwife care. I also birthed at Norwest, a week or so after you! DD was early and wish I had a printed birth plan as it all happened too quickly and I only managed to articulate that I wanted a drug free birth - not the delayed clamping, physiological third phase etc. Next time!!!
