One Born Every Minute (7/2)

Here we are then

The mw said 'do you not want to try anything else first' but wasn't forthcoming with any suggestions!

Maybe if she stayed in there with the Mum and bulit up a relationship of trust the Mum wouldn't be so scared.

laughing at the man saying "baby coming early hours of morning or tomorrow" as if he knows when

What a patronising twat!

These midwives spend an awful lot of time in the staff room - if she can see how anxious pink t-shirt mum is why doesn't she spend some time with her, reassuring her!

mmm, yummy hospital canteen food

why can't she have epidural? Sorry if silly question, first timer here due in May, trying to work out what the heck may happen in my case...

I dont like hr either - might have helped her to stay with her and reassure her a bit longer.

I cannot believe they don't let you have an epidural!!! Why doesn't she leave her tea and biscuits and try to reassure her a bit more - how thoroughly unprofessional!!

MINGE!!!!

Wouldnt want that midwife, she seems more interested in her cup of tea, agree with helly patronising as anything.

at her troughing her baked potato...she'll be seeing that again!

ROFL

a pain in my minge! Classy!

She has to be a mumsnetter!

OH GOD...did she just say minge....

all she needs is a bit of comforting and reasurrance ffs.

lol at "minge" for some reason

lol lol lol

bring back midhusband

Pain my minge on National TV - FAB!
Was she talking about the bloke?

Do they normally tend to abandon those who've been there done that quite so much? I can understand if there are first timers to attend to, but to bugger off the staff room and carry on with your cup of tea seems a little, I dunno, complacent.

Yeah, we will be seeing it again, pretty soon by the look of it!

Best to have something to bring up though...

'My MW said they try to counsel away from epidurals - which explains a lot'

I travelled 1.5 hours by ambulance expressly to get an epi.

They fobbed me off and fobbed me off.

I got more and more dope - G&A, diamorphine, whatever I could get, but kept harping till I got what I fucking well came there for.

The baby was 2.5lbs. heavier than his eldest sister and 3.5lbs. heavier than the other one.

After the epi my bp was still 190/115.

Yep. Wound up with two pushes of some bp drug starts with an L and ventouse delivery to get him out.

Oh, yes, he had cord round his neck as well.

lol at that carash

ng - with both ds's the mw's delayed my request for an epidural (didn't actually end up with one for ds2, but requested it - glad i didn't have one now in hindsight). they seem to let you ask for one for a while, before they say ok. i think it's to let labour progress a while, not too sure really. i guess to see if you can actually get through it without one.

PMSL at a pain in my backside and my minge!!

I can't believe anyone actually had sex with that bloke. he is so annoying.
