Well back in December 2010 some of you lovely lot really helped me along whilst in labour with DD2...

Today it's dc3 (gender unknown) due date...

So, although Im not having a planned home birth this time, I will still be labouring along with you lot, if you'll have me :)

OnlyWantsOne · 24/08/2012 11:49

Ask for tramadol, thats what i got after i had dd4. The afterpains were awful, they get worse after each pregnancy

OnlyWantsOne · 24/08/2012 11:58

Is that a prescription thing or can I send DP to pharmacy?

fuckbadger · 24/08/2012 11:58

I had voltarol after dc1, that was pretty good. The only thing is they put it up my bum!

GlaikitFizzog · 24/08/2012 12:01

Dihydrocodiene is what I got after my cs, good stuff!!

Flosie1989 · 24/08/2012 12:08

I was on oromorph (spelt right not sure) which is morphine based. I had that after my 3rd degree tear. I had to ask for it though.

MrsKwazii · 24/08/2012 12:27

Ahhhhh, congratulations Grin I have no name suggestions, just warm snuggly feelings at the thought of a beautiful newborn

trikken · 24/08/2012 12:34

Congratulations! Hope the after pains ease up for you soon.

systemsaddict · 24/08/2012 12:49

I had voltarol suppositories for afterpains which were BRILLIANT

Indith · 24/08/2012 14:27
