Helloooo..been off being hormonal all afternoon...big blubs and lots of cuddles from DH, who has built up the nursery furniture and done all the hoovering upstairs (and I'm resisting the urge to check under the beds). Been out to wacky warehouse and then nasty pub next door for tea which was pretty rank...complained and got a refund...never mess with pg women or ask them if eveything is OK
Yes Lilkel, I had an emergency c-section with DS. I never fully dilated (got to 9.5 with a remaining rim of tissue), and inspite of them telling me that I could push through it, after nearly 5 hours of pushing and various drugs drips epidurals and spinals they finally wheeled me into theatre. They can't guarantee it won't happen again as they're not sure whether it was because I started pushing too quickly and this caused the rim of remaining tissue to get swollen and hard, or whether it is something mechanically wrong with my cervix. So, I could go through all the effort of dilating, only to find they take me straight to theatre at that point anyway. I did think I'd like to give it a go, but as it gets closer I'm less and less sure about it. Starting to like the idea of having a nice epidural and being handed my baby 25 minutes later then home after a few days reasonably fresh and rested......but I'm sure I'll have changed my mind and back again and then back again, between now and Wednesday

New thread title....Due in June, we'll be holding babies soon. surely no-one can find anything to say about that, other than "awww, cute"
