Not Fair... my son was 33 plus hours of labour, he was face up and had to be turned... and I had stupidly chosend to go natural so no pain killers. I was about to be moved to be sectioned and the midwife did a last check and he'd apparently turned when I was stood up to be moved onto to stretcher for transport. So, back on the bed and then a lots more pushing. I broke every blood vessel in my face (and one in my eye -- gross), I looked like I had the measles.
Then, with DD I was brought into the hospital three weeks early (my doctor fudged my due date because she was estimated to be over 10 pounds at that point). They spent three days getting me effaced, dialated and inducing me -- before realising that she too was face up. They tried to turn her for an hour (and that was soooo painful -- and I had an epidural). I finally refused to push any more an demanded a C-section. The doctor tried to talk me into continuing and asked my husband to reason with me. My husband said, "Give her a c-section. I am not telling her otherwise... I have to live with her." So, I got a c-section. The doctor came in to see me in recovery and APOLOGISED. She said that my DD's chest would not have fit through my pelvic bone. That it was a good thing that I had refused to push.
Wow...I have all of this to come...
Mel, I can't be ar$ed to change the title on a daily basis so have just changed it to "not long to go"
Hope you are ok. Did you see me in the US Open, I so very nearly came second

Just for you Bev, hope Bess doesn't mind me copying this over.......it is just so funny.My God - what are you lot like! Discussing labour, c-sections on here. Thank heavens I never went through all that.
Sorry to be absent on parade for the last few days. The dongle was not a good investment. I could get at my emails but getting onto the internet was a nightmare so I just abandoned it in the end.
Can't find the stuiff on Bess's diary about sheep. Am I cracking up or do I need new specs? Having just spent €800 on new super-duper lenses I'd better not.
Lol, I'd book marked the pageFigures that Chels would be able to find the sheep porn with little or trouble!

Oooooh yes! Heated seats too!! Haven't tried them yet though. First swish car I've ever had - dithered around with the scrappage scheme and finally settled on this. Not new, but brilliant and better value. Mind you, I'll weep the first time I have to stuff it in a hedge on our narrow lanes! I don't actually like being precious about it - it's not me - well I didn't think it was. Probably be better when it's got the odd dent in it.
I've carried sheep in my cars before now. On one occasion a tup and a ewe and the tup was trying it on in the back! The faces of other drivers was a picture! I couldn't stop laughing. So you can see I'm not usually 'car proud.' It's just the novelty I think. The novelty of being slim is better though.....and the new job. Life begins at 50 eh?
Don't mind at all! Still got the car but the sheep have gone.
The sheep in the car - it was a people carrier - well 'sheep carrier' obviously that day. OH was driving and I was turned round, kneeling on the middle seats trying to stop the tup having his wicked way, he'd only just met the ewe as well, . Scoundrel - no chocolates, flowers - but these black sheep are all the same.....
My mother always said I was the black sheep of the family
We were driving up the by pass and the other drivers were staring and then swerving all over the road......oops!
When we got home and let him out and into the field with the other ewes.... . His name was Roger.......
Ramrod Roger
The next year we thought we'd got a gay tup...Ray....but he turned out to be a bit better mannered and liked his privacy!
29 Dis.............I can't wait I'm looking forward to meeting up with everyone for brekkie in the local cafe more than anything. Weird huh???Chels, how many days until you sail off on the Ventura, l've lost track?
