The midwife was horrible, i was crying and begging for an epidural but because the delivery suite was full i was told she was more than capable to deliver me in the labour ward and they moved everyone else out, she basically told me that i got myself pregnant and that 'this is what happens' in labour. My dh took her outside and had a go at her after that. Ds1's heart rate dropped, i was jabbed with a needle and cut open! After his birth she told my dh how i was her star pupil blah blah, i wont repeat the words that ran through my mind!! Then i was put on the ward and left with my baby who i had no clue what to do with, i was 20. I rang the buzzer a while later and asked for a bottle to feed him, and was told 'the bottles are down the corridor'!! THEN the next morning at 8am dh came in and he was told off because he wasnt allowed to visit until 3pm!!! i ended up getting out of my bed very sore after all the stiches and taking ds1 down to the day room to see dh! I hated every second of that place and that will haunt me forever as i couldnt bond with my baby :-(((
Anyway ds2's birth was perfect, laboured at home, got to hosp at 6cm, got my epidural, he was born and everything was perfect :-)
Come on ds3!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!
Sorry for yet another rant haha.
We are off out to a firework show soon, trying to do as much with the boys as possible this week bless them x
