My EDD was 25th April 2008 yet she decided to be a lazy little bugger and make me wait.
Friday
2nd May 2008 I started having what I thought were braxton hicks, rang
the RVI Mat Ward and they told me to ring them back in an hours time and
write down every contraction.
I then rang back up and told them
my times and they told me to come in and checked over as baring in mind I
was 6 days overdue! They checked me over and sent me home! Got home
couldnt even eat my fish and chips I had bought on the way home....Got
into the bath and had my show! Shouted for my partner (who is now my ex
partner) and told him to ring an ambulance for the pain in the ass to
tell me two minutes just finishing this game on the xbox....I'm like you
tw*t I'm in labour and hes like yeah yeah the midwife said you
arent....He ended up passing me the phone in the bath and I had to ring
the ambulance.
Gets to the hospital an hour after first going in
for them to say to me your 8cm dilated....All through out my labour I
only had Gas & Air as I hate needles and I wanted to do it on me own
with out feeling like somebody was telling me what to do...Ie I wanted
to follow my own body
I was in established labour from 8.06pm to
having Imogen at 2.06am Sat 3rd May 2008.....6hrs and 6mins later Imogen
was born into the world weighing 7lb 9.5oz
