Hello Smile did anyone eat during labour? I don't know if I would even feel like eating but since I've had a big appetite throughout my pregnancy I thought I would ask your advice Blush

No I didn't eat but I was waiting on theatre (unplanned vbac) so they weren't keen on water even.

First time around nothing too. Ate lunch in Pret while in labour though. Hospital was about 12 hours later. Must have eaten something in the evening but no recollection Smile

Didn't date during labour though did have lunch with DH Grin

Thank you! After posting I realised autocorrect changed to dating from eating Envy I then posted a new one ConfusedBlush

I didn't want to to eat when in labour with DD1.

I was ravenous when in labour with dd2 and grazed on oatcakes and pancakes and ice lollies and isotonic lucoxade.

The typo made me laugh OP!

I wasn't terribly hungry during labour and then had an epidural so couldn't eat anyway.

I was ravenous afterwards though.
