We were on the monitors too, but as Charlie was so small and posterior as he moved down the canal, the monitor lost him. Sal FREAKED at that point and pushed him out after they broke her waters in four minutes ( 2 contractions )as they couldn't hear a heartbeat. He was bruised from head to bum all down his back poor thing
It was hard for her not being able to move, but as we were still in denial up until they broke her waters that we were having a baby that day, I don't think she really understood she was in labour and there were other options for pain relief ie moving around, water, if you know what I mean?!?!?

Janie, good luck honey, we have been watching your story on the forums, hoping bubs has a MASSIVE growth spurt in the next couple of weeks!
