..hello.baba..
Well, I woke at about 2am on the 19th and was having slight pains in my lower back,then at about 3am my waters broke. I didn't believe it at first. I called the hospital and my contractions were about 5 minutes apart,but they weren't that sore yet..so they told me to try to get some more sleep and call them back in the morning and although it wasn't THAT sore, I knew there was no chance of me sleeping. So by about 4 am they were starting to hurt a bit more,and they were more in my tummy than my back. I called the hospital back about 5am as they were starting to come every 2 minutes apart and they told me to make my way in. Got to hospital at 10 to 6 and after 10 minutes of being there, I had to push. I think mum was a bit scared because the midwife had gone off to get everything ready for examining me. Kenzie John Miller was born at 6.25am, and he weighed 7lbs 7. I feel so lucky to have had such a quick labour,but at the time it didn't feel very lucky. I turned to the midwife just after they had wheeled me through to delivery and asked if there was anything else,besides the gas and air which I inhaled about 5 times, I could have for the pain, but obviously by then it was to late..the head was almost out. I had about 6 pushes altogether, and then he was here.
I got home yesterday and I feel much better now that I'm settling in. I just can't wait to show him off.
