im coming up 38 weeks pregnant. me and bf was talking generally about the birth. im having home birth and was telling him how midwife was saying how if i have to be transfered to hospital it could take upto 30 mins for an ambulance... he said thats rubbish they would get it there within a few mins or so. Then he started going on about how when you give birth your very close to death. of course i know there is a risk when giving birth. i said you can say that about alot of things there are risks in everything. i was trying to tone it down a bit. but he kept going on. it pissed me of because its not something i really want to hear when im not far of giving birth. so was he being unreasonble to be saying them things or am i being over sensitive

i got my birth papers back today. it said my total loss of blood was 250mls so not bad at all. and its not been that bad since either. hoping if thats the case then when i go on holiday in 3 weeks i will be all back to normal :)

i have sent bf home now. because he would have to get up at 5am but mainly because i wanted my bed to myself. but hes back tomorrow. he was rather sweet to be honest. i scared him a bit. during labour but all was ok. hed talking about it quite a bit. and have had lots of congrats from his family which is nice as i dont get any of that from anyone. made it feel nice.
