Whirlwind of a delivery!!

She’s finally here. Zara-Rae💗 born at 40+1 We only just made it to the hospital, less than 10 mins there and she was born! Any second time mums out there don’t mess around getting to hospital when contractions start 😂🙈 I was only in labour an hour! We are all now back home enjoying this little bubble 💖

I could have written this myself! Just about made it to the hospital, got to triage at 21:56 and he was here at 22:11! My contractions only really picked up consistently at 9pm, before that they were on and off from 6ish and bearable. I only put my toddler to bed around 2030! Crazy!

Wow! Soooo quick! Congratulations

@Rupal absolute madness isn’t it lol!! congratulations!! Xx

Awww congrats!! I’m second pregnancy two days overdue and going mad, just want bubs here 😭

@Nikki I'm still shocked at it all. How was your first birth in comparison? I know people say second is quicker but this was crazy!! Congratulations to you too!

@Monika I was 40+6. I had a sweep Monday, acupuncture Tuesday, had sex and a walk yesterday, not sure what triggered it, if anything, out of all that 😂 my first came 41+3

@Rupal 🤣 i asked for a sweep yesterday and midwife said she’ll only give it to me at 41 weeks 😤 walking daily as we have a dog and a two year old…. Really cba for sex but may have to reconsider lol i hate the limbo/waiting game!!

@Monika yeah sex was a desperate measure haha. I have a two year old too and being overdue was getting uncomfortable 😖

My first was born in the car as I'm sure the midwives didn't believe me that my active labour was so short. It's a bit scary isn't it.

That’s the kind of experience I want. Labor at home and pop the baby out once I get to the hospital 😆

@Rupal with my first it was 12 hours long and with this one an hour. Both so so different lol! X

@Hannah very scary lol! Glad it wasn’t rush hour on the roads else we wouldn’t have made it x

@Minnie I mean it was a lot of pain 😂🙈 if it was rush hour we wouldn’t of made it x

@Nikki that’s ok! I had two babies , one at home (dad caught the baby b4 midwife got there) and one was induced with no pain medication. I just hate being in the hospital

Oh wow what a speedy delivery!! Congrats on the safe arrival of your precious baby girl 💕
