Okay so here goes every thing was going smoothly for me so i will start later on in the preg when its intersesting..
SO at around 28 weeks DS was head down and engaged all fun except for my bladder ass he was positioned on my right side!!! this also played havoc on my ciatic (sorry if its not spelt right!) so i went to my pre natal opp at th gynos at 32 +1 all was normal and i remember clearly asking my student midwife if all that pushing and prodding can bring on labour she said it could but a bit unlikley so off i wen home i lived 40 ks away from the hospital the weekend just gone i had movedinto a new home and the ppl that were helping me were useless so i did alot of lifting myself (naughty i kno)!! im still working almost full time at a fish and chip shop at this stage...
So on the 25/04/2007(my 20th bday)(32+3 i woke up a t 6am with a pain that i have never felt before..to be quite honest with you it felt like "down there" was about to fall out! so i was still getting quite a few regular pains i reand mum around 9 to come and get me i had to work at like 3 that day ( i think i remember i had to work!) mus husband came and got me at round 10ish and he took the bumpiest route there!!! any way mum sees me get out of the car and saee that i cant even walk properly asks me if im ok and the tears nearly start flowing i respond saying NO!! mum tels me to ae something to eat and go and lay down and try and sleep!!! but i cant keep still all i want to do is move around!! this causes a hug argument between me and mukm amd she rings the hosi and they suggest to bring me in..long story short on this part Yes i was in labour i had "dont have baby dugs" and to lots of steriods! OK 6 weeks have past and im 38 weeks (and had enough) was asleep on mums couch woke up at 5 pm with the all to familiar pain!! Im in labour WOO HOO So down stairs i go and start helping out at the fish and chip shop with tea!! i was wrapping fish andchips thru contractions!!! i was determined that it wsnt going to stop this time!! got to the hosi at round 2AM was bout 4-5cm but my contractions werent in a set time.doc was called after his internal (painful) he said "we got a big baby in an awkward position so im going to break your water round 10 then you have to have an epidural" this was about 6am so i was like ok!! waters got broken at roun 12 pm ( ithink i stil hadnt slept) it was the most excrutiating pain i have ever felt!! my mum almost passed out with how much i screamed!!
so the epidural man walked in 4 goes for that OD on the gas twice because they had it turned all the way up!! they left me in there for 6 HOURS WITH OUT CHEACKING IN ON ME!!!!! so at bout 6 they have realised that DS was half way down the birth canal..so they did a good internal coz i couldnt feel any thing and the midwives werent able to tell which was the back fontenalle and which was the top??!! so at round 6.30pm 26 n a half hrs after the first contraction the doc goes in tries with the suction cap first (i couldnt push because i was that numb) doc says (thats not working gunna have to get out the salad tongs) my mum was in with me and shesays tht doc almost had his foot up on the bed trying to get him out coz he was thats stuck!! any way at 6.39pm 26 hrs and 39 mins after my first contraction DS Zayvier Declan was born all healthy and looking round the room like oh **** im here AGAIN!! turn out his shoulder came out too prob coz he had been engaged fo so long!! 30 something stiches later (anal reconstruction) i almost had to have a blood transfusion had infections 4 6 weeks....couldnt walk or go to the toilet properly till ds was around 16 mths and sometimes i still bleed after number 2's
Oh and i was a bad cow i tried to breast feed but i had NOTHING i even baffeled the midwives!!!

So when ppl aske me did you have a natural labour i say it was out the "natural" end but there was nothing NATURAL about it!

thanks for reading!!!
