The short version.... My BA!
I had one lot of prostin thursday, by friday 6am still no changes to my cervix, still prosterior and firm. 6.40am (40mins later) I heard a pop and then went my waters. I sorted myself into new pj's and called dh, 20 mins on the monitor, 10 mins in ther early labour room where I could feel bearing down pains minutes after being examined and told I was 3cm dilated, up to delivery ward and 3 pushes later (during which I could feel her moving down into position) she was out! She had her cord tightly around her neck and under her left arm and had to be whisked off untangled and given oxygen. She did breathe spontaneously though. Scary stuff. So Sophia Rose was born on the 24th Sept weighing 8lb 14oz at 8:14am after a 1 hour 34 minute labour and she is perftect!
We had to stay in yesterday as Sophia's temperature dipped and I spent the night doing kangaroo care and her temp rose and stabilised.
We are home now, she is sooo yummy, the children are thrilled with the new addition. I feel suprisingly well!
Freaky moment....mw who delivered her asked when she arrived,....'does she have a nbame', I told her and she said 'noway, I was going to say why don't you name her Sophia'. How freaky is that lol!
omg peeps I'm so in love. I don't want to bath her to preserve her newborn yumminess.
