Just that really last baby was born in 35 mins from the first contraction and I'm scared this one will come even quicker ! I had no warning signs nothing just pains and boom she came.

I was so annoyed as they sent an ambulance and I new baby had pooed as my waters was brownie colour. But ambulance people said it's fine.. when we got to hospital I had to stay in because baby did infact poo.

Could I ask for a c section ? Or do u have to have medical reasons I have had one before but then went on to have normal births x

Yes but I think you'll have to give reasons etc on why you want one but you can have a c section for different reasons doesn't have be a medical reason anyways just give ur reasons and know ur risks still of having a c section and make it known you understand
