Fiona's baby diaries.....

[FionaMcd]

Aw I kno! Anyway I'l just ave trust in my body n hope my natural instincts kick in when needed! Thanx 4 bein there hun x

No worries your body will totally do what it needs to. Are you opting for any pain relief? Gas and air is pretty good makes me feels bit drunk lol x

 

[Allimack]

my plan is 2 try 2 stick it out wif just the gas n air if I can. I like 2 think I'v got a decent pain threshold but obviously I'v never experienced childbirth b4 so I'm not gona beat myself up if I do end up takin sumthin stronger. I really wana avoid an epidural tho as I'd much rather b up n about if at all poss. I also like the idea of the birthin pool but my local hospital only has 1 n even then u can only use it if u happen 2 b lucky enuf 2 b in when there's a m/wife trained 2 use it. Unfortunately as they only got it a few months ago there's not many of them trained in it yet

Call your labour ward. Are pains strong enough to take breath away. Not always regular mine were with Imogen but all over the place with Isobel. I think so long as they are getting stronger just call to check x

 

[Allimack]

They don't seem THAT painful hun altho sum r worse than others. Not sore enuf 2 take my breath away but enuf 4 a "ooooh!" if that makes ANY sense!? lol!
