I'll try again sorry if this is duplicate!

10 days late adn finally she is here.

My waters had gone on 28th july but no comtractions! 2.30 am on 30th I had a contraction. Will this continue i thought? 12 mins later I had another, then 7 mins later then 5 mins later. so I woke DH, he phoned MIL to come and sit DS1 & 2 and we put on TENS. 2mins later another one and they continued at 2 mins apart. I phoned hosp to let them know we were on way. at 3.30 i was told I was 4cm. I continued with the TENS and at 5.45 my baby girl was born weighing 8lb 14oz (4.03kg) Because my waters had gone more than 24hrs they took a sample from her stomach and that came back with puss cells present so she was put on iv antiB's and we had to stay in. Today her bloods came back clear so we were allowed home at last! She is called Jessica. I had no stitches this time although she was my biggest. Bf going well. the SPD has eased alot so i can now walk again! will post again on parenting "June/july" when I get time.
