Marie shares the story of her daughters birth
_________________
The morning I went into labour I was 36weeks 6days so definately wasn’t expecting it to happen anytime soon (altho I did have a gut feeling I’d be a few weeks early).
Woke up in the morning feeling a little under the weather, hubby went off to work and I stayed home (thankfully I’d stopped working already).
After having a few small period like pains I called the hubby to have a whinge.
Although I spent a while trying to convince him not to, he came home from work and called the midwife. Turns out I was in labour and we get to the hospital not long after the hubby calls the midwife.
I had a water labour, but got out of the water for the actual pushing part.
My beautiful daughter was born after 6hours labour and what I class an “easy birth”.
Most woman would hate me saying that! (it was the 6 weeks that followed I found difficult).
Am now due for 2nd bub in a few weeks and planning a water birth this time. Fingers crossed its just as easy!
