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!!!
