Hi my November Due Date BB Girls - well I'm finally posting - a huge apologies if it's a selfish post as I haven't had time to read the myriad of posts since I've been in hospital!
BTW so funny, we realised last night the paedatrician worked out the pounds conversion wrong, Amelia was 7 pound 12 ounces not 7 pound 1 ounce, still, not the 9 pound the OB was predicting! ha ha
AFM - will post more on the weekend when I get to go home, bit hectic and knackered right now. Briefly though, went in on Monday when contractions went from 15 mins apart to 2 minutes apart within 30 minutes, had my waters broken at 5.00 pm as had only dialated to 4 cms, OB came back at 9.00 pm expecting me to be 8 cms and was only 5 cms. I had a fever and the bubs heart rate was too high so he decided to do a c/s. Turns out to be the best decision as he discovered I had an infection in my uterus.....weird as it usually occurs when the waters have broken and been left for too long. Still waiting on the results for that but luckily it didn't affect the bub, but if we had've waited and gone natural it would've! I was disappointed to not experience the vaginal birth but what can you do. Also the recovery sux, it's really sore and painful and I couldn't even get out of bed until yesterday as I had a catheter in but I'm getting there. My daughter is beautiful and healthy and that's the main thing.
Anyway, breakie is here and coming off the 3rd night horrors with my milk coming in and giving her a tummy ache (normally she's feeding every 4 hours and sleeping in between!). Will post more on the weekend.
Love to you all and catch up on personals very soon I promise. xx
