Hi,

I posted this somewhere else, I'm quite new and think I got the wrong section!! :/

I had quite a traumatic first pregnancy/birth:
Crutches for 10 weeks due to PGP
Labour 20 hours then emergency section
Both me and babba had blood poisoning
I had the itchy liver problem (can never remember the name) and it wasn't picked up on
My epidural never worked properly so i could feel them sowing me up and then lost a lot of blood.

On HDU for 2 days, kept passing out, was violently sick from the morphine despite anti-sickness drugs and took about a month to feel anywhere near human.

Now I have an almost 2 year old and I'm thinking of TTC again this year. Anyone had a hard time first time round and better second time??

Thanks smile
