RH33 Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 You might think there's not much happening but there may well be. I went from 3cm to 10cm whilst unconcious on the drugs! Looks like Niamh has a milk allergy but GP won't prescribe soya milk until we see the peadiatrican on Wednesday. Feel like crap cause I didn't persist with breastfeeding for various reasons. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like Niamh has a milk allergy but GP won't prescribe soya milk until we see the peadiatrican on Wednesday. Feel like crap cause I didn't persist with breastfeeding for various reasons. My girl had a milk allergy and it was a disaster for a couple of years or so until she grew out of it. Constantly looking at ingredients of things to see if there was any milk substances in it etc... We were advised to introduce her to milk every now and again to see the reaction and then one day it was gone. Totally bizarre. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pub car king Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Well she was examined 45 mins ago and was 3cm so she went from them breaking the waters to 3 cm in just short of 3 hours. She feels shattered and is sleeping again there is talk of an epidural and possibly some sort of drug to speed up the contractions. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
monkeyblair Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 Question for the guys is it just me who feels like a complete spare p***k there is nothing I can do just watch. At the birth of my youngest I spent most of my time lying on the floor of the room in agony as was really really not well at the time. I managed to stand up to go through to the birth but was kept well away from the business end, sat on a stool and told to chat to my wife if I could. We were both completely done in by the end of it for different reasons but it was great just to be there, I thought they may have kept me out but didn't. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

die hard doonhamer Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 2:15 please! My advice earlier would have been sleep when she's sleeping. And when she's awake do everything she asks. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pub car king Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 No baby yet but I am starting to feel exhausted all I have done is sit in a room since 1 o'clock this afternoon. The missus is asleep again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reina Posted September 5, 2011 Share Posted September 5, 2011 I don't get this sleeping during labour business. Mind you, I wasn't allowed any drugs and mine was intense from start to finish. Ugh. Good luck anyway, hope to read a birth announcement in the morning! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pub car king Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 After a long day the baby wouldn't come out despite foreceps and the Hoover thingy which meant the horrible experience of going into an operating theatre and a c section everything went really well but I don't want to go through it again. And so the info you really want. 7lb 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Adam Posted September 6, 2011 Share Posted September 6, 2011 Well done lad! Also, well done Mrs Car King! As Rowan said, get as much sleep as possible now, it may be a while before you get another uninterrupted nights sleep. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
