Good luck Pecka!
Amelie Rose arrived last night at 9.34pm - the stretch and sweep must have worked on Weds as I had a really niggly night's sleep, then woke up and had a tiny leak of waters. DH took DD1 to school then we went along to thehospital at 9.30 - a few mild contractions, I kept walking around - must have read every healt and safety notice on the board, but I wa convinced gravity would help!
By the afternoon, contractions were frequent but bearable - I was still on the antenatal ward, they said I could go home if I wanted but by this time my waters were pretty "gushy" and I didn't want that on my car or carpet! Must have got through most of a pack of maternity pads during the day. DH went back home to pick up DD2 from school and take her to grandma - when he came back at 6 I needed the TENS machine - then things realy got going - at 8 I felt really rough and DH knew what I needed from last time as he pulled the curtains and grabbed a bowl! (Felt sorry for the woman in the bed opposite) - measured at 6 cm then v strong contractions and wheeled round to the labour ward - I wanted the gas and air NOW! - managed to clamber across to bed in labour room and knelt with hands over pillows/back rest at top, clinging on to gas aand air for dear life (bless DH for understanding that my frantic hand gesture meant "give me a mask I can't cope with this stupid mouthpiece")
She took a good few pushes to come out but the MW was brilliant at slowing things down - small tear where I tore last time which is good going considering she was 9lb 1oz! (last one was 7lb 9oz)
All in all 14 hours from start to finish, actual labour was about 6 - on a total high now, they let us come home so I got to sleep(not much as she was so snuffly) in my own bed, just popped back this morning for the paediatrician to check her over.
Good luck to those still waiting - see you soon on PN thread!
