Robin Patrick arrived in a great rush Sunday 10th January 2010. Exactly 7 pounds (3180g)
Still in shock over labour....quick summary.....Vaginal delivery after 20 mins pushing....I was in the hospital having contractions for about 5 hours beforehand but have no idea how long I was in labour for because according to the official guidelines of dilation etc I never reached 'established labour'. So officially it was a 0 minute labour LOL! (wasn't laughing though when the midwife kept on telling me my 4 in ten minute, over a minute long, strong contractions were not proper labour yet and therefore she wouldn't let me have gas and air or get into the birthing pool yet) So I did it all on two paracetamol!!!
More details later as I am off to sleep while DH cuddles bubs. Cannot believe he is here at last. I am loving cuddles and his little face!!!
Oh my goodness - congratulations! That's wonderful news although I'm very confused about how you managed that with no official labour!!! Well done you! Post some pics up soon once you are recovered x
ps did the army have to come and get you or did you get to the hospital ok??
Congratulations Poppyfairy on the safe and fast arrival of Robin. What a gorgeous name. I hope you enjoy your babymoon all 3 of you & look forward to photos.

Saph that is a big bub you have there. If it helps you my sister's SIL delivered a 10lber & a 12lber in her 40s all au natural.
Hello everyone else I have missed
AFU we have our 12 week NT scan tomorrow and I can't wait to see Phoenix again . A question did anyone NOT have a scan between 12 & 20 weeks and still cope ok? Something that I am considering but its more likely I will decrease scans from 20weeks on if I decide on going through the birth centre rather than OB.
CONGRATULATIONS POPPYFAIRY!!!
Robin Patrick is a Wonderful name....such class and style!! Oh i love it!
