48 hours before i got a delivery room free, 13 hours in the delivery room.

2 epidurals, as well, and still horrific. I was in stirrups for about 10 hours, pushing and then being sewn up (the sewing took about 2-3 hours of that!)

I'm not medically allowed another vaginal birth. And, since I'm allergic to so many antibiotics, finding antibiotic cover for a c-section will be fun! My GP says I have to tel her months in advance of trying, if possibe, so I can get okayed be a gynae!

Got extra high blood pressure at 39 weeks. I was already in initial labour stages but blood pressure was soo high I was induced to speed up DD arrival.

Just over 6 hours from being induced.

12 hours followed by a c section. Oh and I had 2 epidurals due to the first one being inserted in the wrong place causing severe pain in my kidney.
