Erm yep it was kinda quick........infact it was VERY quick!! As you all knew, I had been having pains on and off for a couple of days so i thought it best to get in and get checked out on the off chance...
3.20pm - Arrive at hospital and kept on the monitor for an hour
4.20pm - Bath
4.50pm - Back on the bed in pain
5.00pm - Waters broke
5.09pm - Evie was born weighing 5lb 11oz!! (Her full name is Evangeline Hope)
Phew talk about not having time to even think about it - gas and air was all i had and it was fine (i suprised even myself!) :D
Normal service will resume soon (i was in the middle of baking when i went to hospital so next weeks is done but the Baileys Cheesecake just didnt get done - my mum is staying here for 2 weeks though and she will be giving me a hand to do the baking etc...so we shall be back on track soon) :)
Congrat!!!! What a sweet little baby!!
ReplyDeleteOh Congrats Debbie! She's beautiful! What a picture of innocence! Talk about quick - I thought these things were supposed to go on for hours?!?! LOL!
ReplyDeleteLots of love and hugs!
