Hi
Just to let everyone know that Emmeline Mae arrived safe and well at 7.45pm on 26th May weighing in at 7lb8oz by emergency c-Section after a very long induction followed by 2 failed epidurals and a spinal block when I was 2weeks 2 days overdue. She was back to back and although I managed 29 hours with just gas and air and did everything I could to get her to move ultimately she couldn't be born without a section. Apparently she has a big head, well the so the surgeon said as he hoiked her out. We are sore but doing well. Luckily for me she is a natural feeder and latches on and sucks away like a pro. I really just have up lie there! DH and I are over the moon, particularly given the difficult pregnancy we had, we keep sobbing with joy, way more tears thank Emme ever has!!
Congrats to everyone who has delivered already and good luck to any yet to - I thoroughly recommend the gas and air, I sucked my way through 3 canisters!
