**birth story added** Lacey Lilly born at 7.43 last night. She weighed 5lb7. At 38+5 xx
Will have a nosey in asda when I finally leave the house lol. Have got to this weekend as its my daughters 2nd birthday on Monday. Can't even get hats to fit her lol. Can't believe she is a week old already! X
Lol birthing plans go straight out the window. I didn't even write one and I doubt it would of got looked at either way. Xx
Went in on Wednesday at 2pm to be monitored (was due to go in Thursday) as I wasn't happy about babies movements was on the trace machine for an hour and she only moved 5 Times but everytime she moved her heartbeat dropped. After the Midwife checked my cervix I was 2cm dilated she went to speak to the consultant and they decided to book me in for induction at 6pm so rushed home to grab hospital bag and drop my daughter off at her nans. Got to hospital was on monitor for 20 mins, had cervix check again and it was decided all I needed was my waters broke. After being told all night I was next I didn't sleep and the next morning I told this to the Midwife lol. At 2pm she told me my name was on the board in the Labour ward and I would be called in within the hour. At 4pm went in was on monitor for 20 mins she then broke my waters and monitored me again for a further 20 mins. My contractions came on quite quick....she checked me at 7.20 and told me I was 5cm all of a sudden I wanted to push so she ran out the room and got doctor he then wanted every available midwife in the room...I had no idea what was going on and it was very scary....he then put my legs on the styrups and injected me with a local anesthetic ready to cut me....the only thing I know is that there was blood clots at the front. He said push when you need to. Her heartbeat kept dipping. She was born at 7.43 with the cord wrapped around her kneck and around her body (which would explain her heart dipping when she moved) I later found out they had used vantouse on her to get her out quickly. I think now I should of had drugs lol (thought this after having my 1st aswell).She had to have blood sugar tests throughout the night and her temperature checked at a regular basis as they were all fine and she was drinking well they let me go on Friday afternoon after I convinced them I wanted to go home as they were insisting I stayed in atleast another night...I was told she should be staying in for atleast 3 days. She is doing really well and had only lost 70g of her birth weight yesterday. My coxcyxx has been dislodged again other then that I'm fine.
Hope you all get to meet your babies soon xx
