Annd for all those who wanted to know, I have copied Katz birth story from the June thread for you:

okay one birth story for you all!!

so last time i posted was at 5am on sunday 5th,so the contractions stopped again until about 7.30am where they were intermitant and short. We took the dog for a walk at about 8am with the TENS machine on and the contractions were about 10mins apart and lasting for 20 or so secs.

At 10am we took DD1 over to the neighbours house because they were off out and it was now or not for a few hours!! came home and decided to have a bath, took TENS machine off and got in, shouted to DH to phone midwife (10.45am). Midwife arrived at 11 and we were chatting in the bath, contractions still not very strong but painful. Got out of bath and walked onto landing and had a few more stronger contractions. Sat on the landing chatting to midwife about this and that. At about 11.40 i had three very strong contractions in quick sucession and the midwife said maybe i should just examine you and see how things are going. so moved and hind waters went, managed to make it onto the bed having very strong contractions, midwife managed to examine me and said 'oh hello baby' waters then went in spectacular style all over bed (hence needing new bed!!) she then got the student midwife to phone for home delivery pack and phoned for a second midwife all done with extreme urgency!!

I then turned round and said its coming!! two pushes later Annalise came into the world. The second midwife and delivery pack arrived 10mins after!!

Have got a few stitches but feel great!

Congratulations Katz! And well done you! Am so pleased it all went so well, we were rooting for you on Saturday evening! Hula texted me the news and my inlaws thought I'd gone barmy jumping up and down in the restaurant where we were having lunch. Love the name!

Love to you all!
