My EDD was 14th Sept 2009

I had started having braxton hicks late
night on the 7th Sept 2009 - The night of my step daughter's 2nd
birthday lol!!! I was currently dating a new bloke....He had been with
me for the last two months of my pregnancy and we are still together
now, living together too!

Anyway on the morning of 8th Sept 2009.
My partner Alan knew I was in early labour and cleaned the house from
top to bottom for the arrival of our son! (biologically he's not the
real dad but the real dad has been out of the picture since I found out I
was expecting Andrew....And as far as i'm concerned Alan is his dad) I
went into the Rakelane Mat Ward at 3.00pm and they told me to go home as
i was having contractions but i hadn't dialated and to go home and
rest....By 5.15pm the contractions were 20mins apart.....so we got my
first born Imogen to a neighbours house until my auntie could come and
collect her after work!

By 6.30pm I couldnt handle the pain nomore and by now the contractions were every 11mins....
So in jumps me into Alans convertible, thinking omg i hope i don't give birth in the front of
this
convertible lol! Gets seen to at 7pm and the midwife is like just
breath thru the contractions your 8cm dilated and i need you to stay
calm!

I had actually turned round and stated to the midwife this
was my second baby and I need to push and she was having none of it! I
told Alan I need to push!!!! He just told me well then Push baby you can
do it! I had only had gas and air while Andrews head was crowning and
then had a few pushs and at 7.40pm Andrew came into the world weighing
7lb 14.5oz and I was like whoa 5 more ounces than his big sis for Alan
to point and say you know where the other 5oz were lol.....

I was only in established labour for 40mins I was like whoa!!!!

So god help me when I have my third child! Hopefully it won't be that quick lol!!!
