One Born Every Minute 24/1

[juneybean]

Here we are then

Gah, did I miss a car birth already? It's only 9:07!

That's exactly how I had DD2, being helped up on the trolley like that, midwives helping me get my clothes off, gave birth on fours like that.

Had only an anterior lip in the road on arrival.

Midwife moved it out the road and she was born about 20 minutes after arrival.

Leave Swindon. Obviously helps conception.

Oh God I thought that first baby hadn't made it. My heart was in my mouth (even though I don't think they'd show it if it were the case, it still shook me up)

Me too, little tearful there when that baby didn't move or cry for a while!

Blimey Expat. I'd have felt a bit short changed. I hope they gave you extra toast at least since you did a short stay!

Is he going to wind us all up??

yeah I was holding my breath (like that would help)

Dammit, sounds like I missed a really interesting bit.

Snap Clayre! Got the tissues at the ready

oh god he is such a TWAT!

AnathemaDevice - i have never done it - september will be my first time - prob why i have no sympathy when they scream - it just makes me giggle more - i am going to hell

I love that teapot!

Doesn't help the rest of the population though Bella - once the swindon genes hit the uk pool

That is the biggest tea pot ever!

Yeah, I was so scared for that first baby! DS was practically born screaming, but the thought of the long silence terrifies me.

I never thought in all my life I would ever leave Swindon - ROFL

He had cord round his neck. It's scary.

DS did that. He started to decelerate so they did ventouse and there was the doc's right hand pulling cord off.

Paeds were there and just took him off to one of those warming things.

Does anyone else wonder how an impoverished NHS trust (presumably) can afford that stonking huge Emma Bridggewater teapot?

on the trolley

Agh, he's lovely!

Was just going to post that I hate those teapots [bgrin]

yes, fab tea pot!

Right, he didn't take long to start being annoying.

I was holding my breath for the car birth. Poor mother looked shell shocked.

oooh Birth Pool Room Dad is a bit of a know all
