Daddy and baby in the hospital yesterday getting rest 💙

So my birthing story is pretty straight forward...

I started having contractions around 10/11on Saturday night, the same day I'd had my sweep. I was at my boyfriends, and once they got strong my mum came and picked us up. I rang up the hospital and, since the contractions weren't too bad, they told me to try a bath and ring back in an hour, so I did. I went into hospital after ringing back and, after half an hour on the monitor with contractions getting stronger, I was examined and told I was 5cm dilated. I was moved to the labour suite and survived for about half an hour to an hour on just gas and air in the birthing pool. I eventually had to get out and have stronger pain relief and ended up having diamorphine, since the injection I was sleeping in between contractions and pushing. I was pushing for around half an hour and then my little man was finally here, and I have never smiled as much as I have since that moment 💙
