Couldn't believe it when I woke up at 5am and realized my 1 week old bub hadn't woken up during the night. I put him down at 10pm ( after him feeding for about 2 hours) and he didn't wake up until 5.45am. He is such a good sleeper ( touch wood that it continues )

So was talking to a a new work colleague who asked what I was thinking of calling the bub. Told him I love the name Charlotte.. His response, 'oh, I don't like that name.. Charlotte the harlot!'
Really wanted to flatten him and now really put off my preferred name :(

How is your nephew going? I check for updates all the time

How is your nephew going? I check for updates all the time

It took us ten years to fall pregnant. So with two preterm scares, terrible spd and swollen lateral ventricles on ultrasounds,it was a relief to make it to 38 weeks. Starting early labour pains and being 2cm dilated I was expecting labour to come easily and quickly. Omg how wrong was I.
At my 40wk apt on the friday my midwife new I was in pain and organised for my 41 wk apt to be the following wed where I was told I was 3cm and a stretch and sweep was done and an inducement apt made for 515pm Friday.
The cramps intensified to 5min contractions by Thursday and I was having trouble breathing thru the pain. So up to the hospital we went- straight into a brisvegas baby boom. Everyone was delivering. I was checked over and told i was still 3cm and given panadeine forte but there were no beds on the birth suite available so I would be admitted and bub would come before Friday which I was happy with.
5pm Friday I am still having 5min contractions and on panadeine as once again my labour was not progressing. I was taken down to the birth suite at 7pm and given gel to help progress then sent back to the ward and told my waters would be broken at 5am. So 1130pm I finally lay down to go to sleep- pop- my waters broke. Notified the nurse - crap no beds- contractions intensify- more water breaks at 2am. Finally at 4am a bed becomes available. My midwife assesses me at 5am 4cm. I try to walk thru the pain but cannot stand because of the pressure and im in agony so have a hot shower. Contractions become irregular one , two, four minutes apart. Some on top of each other. Allow for the drip to be put in to try and even them out. 6am drip starts, ask for the gas at 7ish after hubby was pleading with me to take pain relief. By 10am I'm in real pain and the dr comes in and says your 6cm, bub is posterior and in distress and your bp is falling, she has moved back up into the uterus -we need you to have an epidural to prep for a c-sect just in case we cant manipulate her back down. Ok then- hubby was being so supportive but looked like he wanted to cry - which I was doing lol.10 minutes later I wanted to push- dr checks 8cm, bub wants out now. Im being told dont push which I'm trying my hardest not to do. Still only on gas so apologies to all the ftms in the rooms nearby.
At 11 I'm in absolute agony and still trying not to push, Guy comes in and starts to do an epidural, whole hubby and midwife are holding me from not moving while I'm contracting 30sec to minute apart and trying not to push. Guy says im just doing a block and everyone's telling me don't move- not the easiest thing to do - The dr is monitoring bub and trying to assist as well.
By 1230 Spinal block is done- the guy doing it must have had the patience of a saint. I was so relieved.
Told I could push 15minutes later and bubs is born just after 1pm. Lily Joan - 8lb 13ounces, 55cm length, 35.5 hc, Couldn't feel a thing.
Umbilical cord wrapped around her neck and still distressed. Massive bruising in her head too which is swollen.
Paediatrician asses her while I'm having some minor stitches- lovely.
She has to be monitored in nicu because it's a bleed under her skin as she was stuck on my pelvic bone and being posterior I couldn't get out. Hence the long labour and not being able to walk.
I'm allowed to feed and cuddle her before hubby takes her to the nicu with the nurse.
So it is now 443am Sunday morning and I have just managed to wake up from a /hr sleep before I head down to bub again. She feeds wonderfully every 1 1/2 hrs. She is beautiful. I love her so much and I couldn't thank my hubby, midwifes or doctors enough if I tried. They have been so amazing.

Ps sorry this is so long.
