    I didn't put on a lot of weight during my pregnancies. Only the minimal 8-11 kgs. Limiting activities though. I couldn't push a trolley, so ex usually did the shopping. I tried to do as little as possible... til nesting kicked in!

    I had a 12 hr labour with almost 3 hours of pushing. I had an epidural for much of that time and so was on my back, with midwife and DH pushing my legs to my chest during contractions. They were very careful of my bad side (I had drilled it into Dh beforehand that he needed to keep an eye on it) and were again careful when they were stitching me up.
