Ok...Here goes....Im going to try and tell my story....
EDD= 4th October *Monday 26th September- Decide we are going to go to our friends house....Day doesnt start to well as I am grumpy and cant find anything to wear DP then says something and I bawl....(Probably just said Hi or something LOL) Finally find some tracky daks and a frumpy bali 'bintang' shirt to wear.....Yeeeehaaa (Good look) Arrive at friends house and the boys go for a ride on there 4 wheelers in the bush... My friend and my self stay home to get dinner ready...Well I watch LOL About 5.30 I feel as I need to do a poo.....(dont like doing poo poo anywhere else but home) oh well I get over that and sit on the throne trying without achieving anything....Hmmmmm I then start compalining about needing a poo and having alittle bit of period pain..... My friend gives me the look as she has had 3 children herself....At this stage I think its nothing and stay sitting on there lounge telling her that its nothing.. *6.30 Boys arrive home, we eat dinner and I begin to get stronger pain...Having alittle whinge every now and then.....Pain becomes alittle more uncomfortable around 7pm and I stand to walk around to see if it will go away.....Took one step and I say ....."ohhhhooooooo....I just wet my pants......" My friend smiles and says...."this is it"....DP looks as if we are joking....LOL.... I walk to the toilet and sit down to find alittle bit of water and brown blood on my knickers.....Here I am sitting on the loo with the door open with my friend calling the hospital me sitting spread legged like its the normal thing to do....Hahaha (poor Friend) I ask for someone to ring my mum....She too thinks its all a big joke...She stays on the phone as I start to complain and moan about the niggly contractions....The midwife says that its still early and to stay home as long as possible....DP still not fazed as he thinks its not really happening and it hasnt hit him.... *8 pm leave friends house....Drive home in quite alot of pain, contractions now coming 3 mins apart...DP starts to stress and says "should we go straight to the hospital ?" I tell him NO...I need my stuff......(thinking to myself that this isnt the way its all meant to happen...Hmmmm) Arrive home walk around in circles stopping with pain quite often....Mum arrives and ends up taking me and dp to the hospital...Me facing backwards on the back seat....Breathing heavy....groaning.... Mum then says something stupid like...."let me know when you are having a contraction"...I snap back saying "isnt it obvious when I am having one..... Mum misses the turn and ends up going the long way...I look up and go off my head.....LOL *8.30pm arrive at the hospital where the midwife greets us..... Takes us to the observation room and gives me a internal (ouchhhh) to tell me that I am only 2 cm dilated. Im rolling around the bed groaning in pain....asking for a epi.... Midwife disappears....10 mins has gone past and Im now yelling at everyone asking where she has f%^*ing gone!!!!!! Im sorry Im not very good at telling stories.... Anyway..... New midwife comes in and I tell her I need to poo.....Again I try ...Nothing! I then tell her I want a epi...She then suggests we go into the labour room and see from there.....(god damit Im thinking...Give it to me NOW!) Get to labour room and have another internal to find out that I am now 6 cms dilated....(yahhhh) Midwife calls man to give me a epi.....Hmmm takes is time of course....Im looking at my mum and DP with puppy dog eyes and crying....Babbling that I cant do this anymore...... With my contractions painful and full on without any breaks I yell ......."Where the hell is he?" Midwife offers gas I tell her where to stick it LOL.... Ahhhhh finally epi man arrives....Im on all fours trying to get comfy.... By this stage Im groaning very loudly with every contraction.... Next thing I know I need to push....Midwife says no dont push.....As the epi man was trying to put needle in my back.......I must have asked my midwife 1000 times......"when I have the epi ...I wont feel pain anymore????..." Im sure she was sick of hearing it...LOL... 10.30 and Im in heaven.....People can actually talk to me now...Im a normal person again.... Dp and mum look at each other and and say....."Hmmmm here we go..were gonna be here all night"....As I was so relaxed and pain free They thought it had all stopped....... *Midnight- Midwife checks me again to tell me the head is right there and I can start pushing........PUSHING  ...Im in heaven with no pain and she wants me to push !!!!Ok so I begin to push have no feeling but push with all my might...... I feel as if I am doing so well and that the baby should be out...When they inform that...."not yet but you are doing really well" After lots of pushing I yell " UPDATE me!".....LOL....They all begin to laugh... Other midwife offers me a mirror.... Having trouble pushing as I am on my back sitting up alittle....Midwife suggests that I put my heal into her hip and into my mums.....Ohhh that was the trick.....It was all happening now.... With panting and puffing ( I didnt realise that the breathing thing would just come so naturally) I hear....Thats It good girl......Push slowly.... and lots of other things being said too.......Dp is at the bottom of the bed filming..... Finally after 6 hours our darling little man is born.....@ *12.32, weighing 7lb 1 oz and No name......LOL I begin to try and feed straight away....even tho I didnt know what I was doing...But it was nice having him so close to me..... My legs are spread waiting for the placenta.....(didnt even know I had a needle) midwife down there checking things out I ask if I had a tear and she said a small one in and out that would need stitching.....(HMMMM Great)...Dont feel much only alittle tugging.Mil and Sil arrive at 1.30am to have cuddles and I fianlly have shower with DP helping me.... Walk back to bed with my legs spread like theres no tomorrow from the hugggggggge pads..(lol) Family leaves and Dp helps me settle into bed and says goodbye himself. DS sleeps most of the rest of the morning...Myself lie there for ages thinking....Oh my god....I have a baby.....  3 Days later we decided on his name JAMES DANIEL 27.09.05 Thanks for reading! I hope it all made sense as I am not the best story teller around.....ohhh and also I understand if you got bored.....Im sorry it was soooooo long.... Kim
