Yesterday (Monday 5th Oct) at 11.55am.
Started having contractions around 2am, went into hospital 6ish as last time they speeded up very suddenly and we only just made it in time, didn't want the same to happen again.
Hospital sent us home again (as they do....) and contractions then slowed down again and were every 10-15 minutes until 11.15am. At which point they suddenly increased to every 2-3 mins and much more gruesome.
It was clear we weren't going to make it so we called an ambulance, but unfortunately there weren't any free in our local area so they had to send one from half an hour away. They arrived just in time to get me into the ambulance but didn't manage to get any further and baby was born in ambulance parked outside our house, delivered by 2 fab female paramedics....
Baby weighs 6 lb 7 oz, feeding & sleeping pretty well. Can't believe how fab it is not to feel sick any more after 7 1/2 months of hyperemesis, or how much energy I've got. Have been scoffing pate and mould-ripened soft cheese all day
