...but she kept me waiting too! dd2 has arrived at last
sorry for being so lax posting but it's been a bit of a rollercoaster - everything fine though. Baby daughter (still no name @ 2 weeks old ) delivered by c-section on Tuesday 22 April at a bouncing 8lb 9.5 oz! went in for scheduled induction but v few weedy contractions even after waters broken for me. I never even got as far as drugs - needle went into the back of my hand and although I felt fine, my bp/pulse just dropped & they took me in for a crash section as the baby's heart slowed dangerously too. had to have a general anaesthetic which was the worst bit & vomited a bit on waking up. she's beautiful though and don't regret any of it. dh away for a week so parents looking after me & dd1. baby sleeping 5 hours at night and mastitis I thought I was getting seems to have subsided & I haven't had to start taking the antibiotics. nipples still bloody sore though, who'd have thought it after 2 yrs of bfeeding dd1??? anyway, she's gorgeous and I hope to be posting more soon, bundle x
ps thanks for all your kind thoughts, I've been thinking about you all especially percy
