I have two little boys so this could be long. :family :family :family

Baby 1.

ah i was huge on him, wasnt scared at all given birth, had the worst pregnancy in the world full of :babysick :babysick so then night before i went into labour my friend and me were talking and by mistake she knocked of my stomach and i got a shooting pain. so i was like i better not go into labour and she was like ya wont, so i went home and woke up at 4.00 on the 28th october 2001 on my due date (thinking i was constipated) and went down to the toliet, and got my show.. I got such a fright I ran up to my mam and was sobbing, she got up and rang my sister margaret and ds dad, and the whole family (while im in pain) so my sister came up and brought me into the hospital and I had a huge fight with my mam outside coz she was trying to bring the bag in and i was like no dont what if im not even in labour and she was like shut up and go into the hospital, so we went in and the mid wife brought me straight up the labour ward at around 5 am and gave me an internal, and i was 2 cm gone, so she told me to have a bath and a walk and she'd come back to me (my mam came in with me for legal reason's coz i was young) so then i then i had my bath and was talking to my mam and she was crying and all, saying she was proud of me and that it was going to change my life but she'd always be there for me and that. so then when i got out of the bath it was the worse pain in the world, omg i worst pain in the world so the midwife got the epidural man (dont know what ya call them) and he gave me the epidural coz i was 5 cm girls i couldnt feel a thing was up talking, texting everything, it was like a miriacle, so she kept saying in the next hour you will have the baby and all and i was like ok, at 3.30 she told me it was time to push. i pushed for an hour and he wasnt coming so they gave me the suction (hoover) and that didnt work so then the forksnipps came out and they literely pulled him out at 4.49 pm i had a beautiful little boy weighing in at 7lb 10oz.. I got stitches coz i got ripped open all over but it was all worth it.. seen his little face, my mam didnt really help she was sobbing in my face, she still says to this day she'd never to it again ( i was her first that she went in with) I then wouldnt leave the labour ward until ds dad came in and seen him so my mam went to get him and the midwife said to me fix your hair you look terrible (I still laugh at that) girls it was all worth it..

baby 2.
On new years eve 2006 i went into labour and when i got into the hospital they told me that I was in labour 3 weeks early, i thought this was fine, I was very small on him. so she sent me home told me i'd be back before the end of her shift, so i went home went to bed to lie down and fell asleep woke up the next morning and the pains were gone, so this went on like this for two weeks, then they got worst so i went into the hospital and they sent me home, so on my visit on the 17th January I told the woman that i was having terrible pains so she said sit up there and i'll help ya so she gave me an internal oh god girls i thought the pains were bad until then, i was in agony. so went out to h2b and he was like ok we'll go home and get your bag, so off to the hospital and the midwife said your in labour but not dilating so i'll keep ya in to keep an eye on the baby coz this is happening for so long to make sure the baby doesnt go into stress. so off to the ward we went and then the midwife came down and told h2b to go home. so i had no phone (it was dead) so h2b said swap with me i'll ring ya when i get home. so I was like yea ok, well he was only gone and i got a gush of pain, the midwife came down and checked me and was like sorry dear (really old woman) i didnt think the pains were as bad coz ya kept smiling at me saying ya were ok, I was sobbing coz i was 1cm and as she was doing it i went to 3. she told me this would be quick, i really thought i was going to be alone for it. so i rang my mam and told her to tell h2b when he got in to come straight back up, so within minutes h2b rang said that he'd be up, rang the gaurds to say that he'd be breaking the lights etc. so he was in with me in ten minutes i couldnt believe, it that was at 12.20, girls the pain was unbelieveable i was hysterical they couldnt give me the epidural coz i wasnt past 4cm and they were sayin your going on a bit much and all, i was like im not i swear sucking the gas and air like there was no tomorow. then the main mid wife took it off me saying the pain isnt that bad, about twenty mins later of not haven a thing. then i felt something between me legs and i screamed the head is in between me legs and she said relax its not the baby its your water, my waters came out in the bag (its very rare and ya sell it to fisher men and they say there ship will never sink) so i said can i get the epidural now and she was like in a minute. little did i know i was too far gone to get it and i tried to jump up to find the doctor for it and she knocked me back lying down by the shoulder and said if ya jump up there ya will choke the baby, girls it was so sore, but was worth it at 2.59am i had a bouncing boy 7lb 8oz. girls i would recommend not going or the epidural the pain is unbearable but after it ya feel fantastic.

hope i didnt turn off anyone off haven kids

They were brilliant stories. Some of the older midwives are cows. How do they know how much pain you are or aren't in.
The midwife told me they heard me screaming in the car park haha
