The short of it is that I was induced due to preeclampsia, was fully dilated after just over an hour then started to push. Contractions went off to nothing so had the drip up to bring them back on. Didn't work. Jack went into distress and I had an episiotomy done with out a contraction and with no pain relief! I can still hear myself screaming then the doctor pulled him out with a ventouse vacuum extractor.
It was over in 2 hrs 44 minutes but I was very shell shocked.
Thank you so much for mentioning the clocks! I always forget about it and then meet my mum at the wrong time for the car boot.
I hate ironing, Rowan does it because I am crap at it! I iron more creases in than I get rid off. That's a mammoth cleaning list you've got there Heather. Don't tire yourself out though trying to get it all done.

Aww bless him, that cant have been nice affecting his breathing
Glad your enjying your job, sounds great although i dont think i would be able to put up with the blood etc etc ..... i know you told me before but what happened in your labour?
I have made butterfly cakes, cookies although they are more like buscuits than cookies and creme brule ... although i dont think that will turn out right as the cream doesnt seem to be setting LOL
I have a huuuuuge stack of irnong to do tomorrow, wanted to do it today but just havent got round to it so not looking forward to that and then we lose an hour tomorrow too with the cloks going forward tonight so thats not helping as that hour would cover my ironing ... i want to do some more baking tomorrow and go to ringwood hall to book it for our wedding night, my sete needs cleaning as does my room floor and bathroom ... theres no way that will all get done tomorrow .. thats in inbetween making dinner!!!
I hope your going to be haveing a more interesting day than i wil be LOL

He's fine now thanks Heather. He's bouncing around on his zebra, he's mastered climbing on and off it himself now so I don't have to keep getting up to put him back on it.
Injections really don't agree wit him, the last one he had caused him breathing difficulties and an emergency trip back to see a doctor.
Works going really well, I'm still on labour ward and loving it. I do find though that sometimes especially when someone has an episiotomy and ventouse I feel a bit paniky because of what happened with Jack. It's getting a bit easier now though.
I had two lovely deliveries yesterday, observed one and delivered the other one myself. A beautiful baby girl. Makes it all worth while
Have you made anything nice today. I've baked some bread - well the breadmaker helped lol. I think it must have been baking and tidying day today for us as well. I've finally emptied Jack's wardrobe and sortted through his clothes. I found some newborn stuff on the bottom shelf. I can't believe he was ever that tiny.
What are you up to tomorrow?

Awww poor Heather, all alone lol. Loved the singing btw.
Shattered today, Jack has had his MMR and had a 40 "c temp and projectile vomited three times. He's not happy.
I've just got back from my mums as it was my little sisters 16th birthday today, the whole family came round to have cake with her and watch the footie - which was crap!
How are Tyler and Brayden?
How has work been?

Got the car back today. £300! That's the holiday savings account cleared out.
My Aunt and Uncle came over from Telford so we all went out for a meal today. It was nice to get together as a family with everyone. I'm supposed to be at work tonight but luckily managed to swap my night shift for monday.
Jack has started walking with his baby walker, he thinks he's so clever. The only problem is that he gets stuck when he bumps into the furniture and then he starts screaming until someone turns the walker round for him.
Hope everyone has a brilliant easter weekend.

Hi all,
Well my car has gone in for it's MOT this morning. That's going to cost a fortune!
We've got our new tv now, and I love it. Jack can't turn it off as the button is on the side. He was turning our other one off about a 100 times a day, we had tried everything to get him to stop. Telling him off, ignoring him, moving him nothing worked. It seems stupid but it was just another stress. Rowan is delighted as his wii looks brilliant on it.
Heather, have you had your meeting at work yet. Fingers crossed for you x Surely they can't sack you just for that! Do they record your calls as it would be clear from that what had happened. Hope everythings ok

morning ladies.
how are you all?
11/3/08 21:41
Hi Heather,
I've been doing a lot of nights lately so haven't had much time to come on the computer. We've also been spending a lot of time at my mum's as our boiler has been broken, so we've had no hot water or heating for over a week!. My brother managed to fix it for us today.
I received a major shock yesterday. My gas bill arrived £199 for the quater. Huge bill which I really wasn't expecting. We only have the heating on for four hours in a 24 hour period so I don't know why it's so much.
I'll text Tara this week when I've got some credit. She seems to be going through a real rough patch again doesn't she.
Hope everyone's ok
11/3/08 20:40
Thought i should bump us
Helena hope everythings ok, you have been away for a while now, hope Jack is doing well
Tara wont be on internet for a while now but she asked me to say bye, not sure if she will have text you or not
Been busy today, all i have done this afternoon is cook and bake!!
Hope everyones well xxxx
