WELL YESTERDAY WAS A BIT OF UP AND DOWN KIND OF DAY. FOR THE PAST FEW DAYS IVE BEEN POSTING ON MY PERSONAL PAGE THE LAST TIME DOING THIS ON MY OWN ETC AND GETTING MY HEAD ROUND TO NOT LEAVING THE HOSPITAL WITHOUT MY BABY OR STAYING BACK IN MY HOUSE WITHOUT HIM. I HAD TO GO TO THE HOSPITAL YESTERDAY FOR 11AM AS I WAS GETTING TOOK IN THE AFTERNOON, SO HOPING IM GETTING MY 2.22PM TIME OR ROUND ABOUT. EVERYTHING WAS POINTING THAT WAY AS THEY WERE COMING BACK FOR ME AROUND 1.30/2PM. I GOT MY BLOODS DONE AND JUST WAITED. THEN ABOUT 2ISH THEY CAME AND TOOK THE LADY NEXT TO ME AS MY BLOODS WEREN’T BACK YET. AS TIME WAS GETTING ON I STARTED TO THINK IS IT WASN’T GOING TO HAPPEN TODAY AS THAT DEPARTMENT CLOSES AT 5PM. THE NURSE CAME AROUND 3.45 AND ASKED FOR MY BLOOD AGAIN AS SAYS THEY REJECTED IT. THEN 15 MINUTES LATER THE SURGEON CAME BACK AND EXPLAINED THAT MY BLOOD WAS SHOWING SIGNS OF ANTIBODIES SOMETIMES AND NOT OTHERS SO THEY NEEDED ANOTHER SAMPLE TO MAKE SURE WHAT IT IS AND THAT THEY HAD SPARE BLOOD FOR ME INCASE I NEEDED A TRANSFUSION. WHICH IS GOOD THEY ARE LOOKING AFTER MY SAFETY IN THE OFF CHANCE I NEED ONE. SHE ALSO SAID THAT SHE WOULD STAY ON ALONG WITH ANOTHER STAFF MEMBER BUT EVEN IF IT COMES BACK OK AND THEY HAVE MY BLOOD THEY NOW DON’T HAVE ENOUGH THEATRE STAFF, TO PERFORM THE SECTION SO IT WOULD RELY ON HOW BUSY THE LABOUR STAFF ARE TO HELP, SO AT THAT POINT I KNEW IT WASN’T HAPPENING TODAY. SHE CAME BACK AT 4.45PM TO SAY BLOODS STILL NOT BACK YET AND THAT I COULD STAY , AS I DIDN’T WANT TO LEAVE THE HOSPITAL AS MUCH I WOULD PREFER MY OWN BED. SO AT THAT POINT I STARTED TUCKING INTO MY WEE SNACK BAG THAT I HAD BROUGHT AS I WAS STARVING I HAD NOT ATE SINCE 11.30PM THE NIGHT BEFORE! WEE CONOR MUST HAVE BEEN LIKE WHATS GOING ON , WHERES MY CHOCOLATE HAHA!! BY THE TIME I GOT READY ETC THE SURGEON CAME BACK TO SAY BLOODS ARE BACK AND THEY HAVE BLOOD FOR ME INCASE I NEED IT AFTER ALL BUT THERE IS NO STAFF ANYWAY TO PERFORM THE SURGERY AND BY THAT TIME IVE NOW ATE 2 CHOCOLATE BARS AND A PACKET OF CRISPS SO WAS DEFINITELY NOT HAPPENING LOL AND THAT THERE WERE NO BEDS FOR ME TO STAY SO I HAD TO GO HOME! MY AMAZING MUM KEPT ME COMPANY ALL DAY, WE CALLED MY BROTHER TO COME PICK US UP AND WENT FOR SOME DINNER!
I WAS EVEN IN ROOM 22 WHILE WE WAITED, I THOUGHT YESTERDAY WAS A SURE SIGN BUT IT WAS JUST NOT MEANT TO BE, EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON NO POINT DWELLING ON IT. I CAMES BACK TODAY FOR 8.15AM AND JUST HAVE TO WAIT FOR MY TURN, SO IT LOOKS LIKE 23.11.22 IS THE DAY.
I LOVE MY STAR SIGNS AND ALWAYS REFER TO A WEBSITE CALLED ASTROLOGY.COM SOMETIMES ILL READ IT ALL THE TIME , OTHER TIMES I WONT READ IT FOR MONTHS, I ONLY STARTED USING IT LAST NOVEMBER. LAST YEAR IVE SAID FOR A WHILE MY LIFE HAS CHANGED SINCE LAST NOVEMBER AND REMEMBER SOMETHING ABOUT A NEW MOON. WELL TODAY IT IS ACTUALLY A NEW MOON DAY AND MY BABY IS HOPEFULLY GOING TO BE BORN TODAY…..
THIS IS NOW 2 WEEKS LATER I AM CONTINUING THIS BLOG. AS I WAS WRITING THE ABOVE THE SURGEON CAME IN TO INTRODUCE HERSELF AND THE 2 LADY STUDENTS WHO WILL BE PRESENT IN MY OPERATION. THE FEELING WAS ACTUALLY SURREAL KNOWING THAT I AM NOW ABOUT TO DO THE WALK THEN COME OUT THAT ROOM WITH CONOR!!!!
MY LAST PHOTO BEFORE I BECAME A MUM
THE WHOLE PLANNED SECTION PROCESS WAS ACTUALLY AMAZING, TO THE WALK DOWN CHATTING TO THE NURSE, TO GOING INTO ROOM WITH EVERYONE INTRODUCING THEMSELVES AND TALKING ME THROUGH THE PROCESS SO CALMY AND ORGANISED. MY MUM DROPPED ME OFF THAT MORNING AT 8.15AM AND WAS GOING TO COME BACK IN A FEW HOURS, I CALLED HER AT 8.40AM TO TELL HER TO COME STRAIGHT BACK LOL. I HEADED DOWN AND GOT MY EPIDURAL, THIS WAS THE PART I WAS DREADING THE MOST AND IT WAS ACTUALLY NOTHING, 5 SECONDS OF A WEIRD FEELING AND THAT WAS IT. THEN YOU LIE ON THE BED AND GET ANOTHER ANAESTHETIC THROUGH YOUR DRIP. THEY DO THE COLD AIR TEST TO MAKE SURE YOUR COMPLETELY KNUMB AND ASK YOU TO LIFT YOUR LEGS UP WHICH YOU CANT AT ALL, THIS BIT I FOUND FUNNY AS I WAS SO HELPLESS BUT ALSO KNEW THE TREATMENT IS WORKING. THEY WERE ALL READY TO GO AND MY MUM WAS STILL NOT IN THE ROOM, SO I CALLED HER AND TURNS OUT SHE WAS NEXT DOOR GETTING GOWNED UP, SO IN SHE COMES AND THEN THEY START. BY THAT TIME I ALREADY HAD TEARS COMING OUT BOTH EYES I GOT SO EMOTIONAL, IT WAS THEN IT REALLY SANK IN IM PREGNANT I AM ACTUALLY MEETING CONOR N A MATTER OF MINUTES AFTER ALL THIS TIME. MY MUM IS BEHIND ME HOLDING MY HAND 2 OF US LOOKING FUNNY WITH OUR BLUE HAIR CAPS ON LOL! I GET TOLD I MIGHT HERE SOME WATER NOISES THEN THE NEXT MINUTE IT SOUNDED LIKE I WAS SPLASHING ABOUT IN THE SINK IT WAS LIKE BIG SWISHING NOISES. THEN I GET TOLD I MIGHT FEEL SOME PRESSURE AT THE TOP OF MY STOMACH AND WHEN I DO THAT WILL BE CONOR COMING OUT, THAT WAS A WEIRD FEELING A MUST SAY BUT IT WAS CLOUDED BY THE IMAGE I WAS ABOUT TO SEE COMING OVER THAT BLUE SHEET. THERE HE IS SCREAMING AWAY AND PUT DOWN NEXT TO ME FOR SKIN TO SKIN, I LITERALLY HAVE NO WORDS TO DESCRIBE SEEING HIM FOR THE 1ST TIME IT IS JUST UNEXPLAINABLY WONDERFUL. THEY TOOK HIM AWAY TO THE SIDE GAVE HIM A JAG, MY MUM CUT THE CORD THEN THE NEXT MINUTE SHE IS FEEDING HIM A BOTTLE NEXT TO ME WHILST THEY START STITCHING ME BACK UP. SO FROM ME CALLING MY MUM AT 8.40AM TO SAY IM HEADING DOWN TO THEATRE MY BABY WAS BORN LESS THAN AN HOUR LATER AT 9.39AM! ACTUALLY AMAZING! IN AND OUT NO MESSING ABOUT !
AFTER HIS 1ST FEED HE GOT PLACED BACK ON TO ME FOR A BIT, I JUST COULDN’T WAIT TO GET TO MY LABOUR SUITE SO I COULD HOLD MY BOY PROPERLY FOR THE 1ST TIME.
KNOWING WHAT WAS HAPPENING TO ME AT THAT MOMENT WAS WEIRD BUT JUST OVERTAKEN BY CONOR AND THIS NEW JOURNEY IM ABOUT TO START ON.
THIS WAS 2 HOURS AFTER I HAD HIM OUR 1ST PHOTO TOGETHER OUT OF THE THEATRE ROOM. ALL I DONE HERE WAS TOP UP MY LIPSTICK. JUST LOOK AT MY BOYS BEAUTIFUL BLONDE HAIR, HE JUST PERFECT!
NOW 2 WEEKS ON, TIME HAS WENT SO FAST AND JUST LOVING EVERYDAY HAVING CONOR IN MY LIFE NOW FOREVER MORE. EVERYDAY IM WATCHING HIM GROW, CHANGE AND DEVELOP HIS OWN WEE PERSONALITY. HE IS HONESTLY A DREAM, SO CONTENT, CHILLED, HAPPY AND FULL OF SMILES. I HAVE BEEN SO LUCKY WITH MY PREGNANCY, BIRTH AND NOW BABY! MY MUM HAS STAYED A FEW NIGHTS TO HELP AND SO GRATEFUL FOR ALL HER HELP, DROPPING SHOPPING IN ETC AS I CANT GET TO THE SHOPS OR DRIVE.
NOT EVEN A FULL DAY OLD YET AND ALREADY SMILING
HIS GOING HOME OUTFIT HIS GRANNY BOUGHT HIM. HE LOOKS LONG IN THIS PHOTO BUT HE REALLY IS NOT
LOOK AT HOW PERFECT HE IS AND HIS LOVELY BLONDE HAIR
BEFORE I WENT INTO THE SURGERY I WAS SAYING THAT I WOULDN’T LIKE ANY STUDENTS IN WITH ME BUT NOW I AM GLAD I DID HAVE BECAUSE THE SURGEON IS ONLY GOING TO DO HER BEST WORK WHILST SHES TEACHING. MY SCAR IS ACTUALLY AMAZING SO SMALL ,DISCREET AND HEALED BRILLIANTLY SO FAR, EVEN THE MIDWIFES HAVE BEEN SAYING THEY HAVE NOT SEEN A SCAR AS A GOOD AS THAT EVER! FRIENDS ALSO HAVE COMMENTED IN COMPARISON TO OTHERS THEY HAVE SEEN. IN MY 1ST WEEK I WAS OUT AT THE SHOPS, WALKING MY PRAM AROUND MY STREET AND UP AT MY BROTHERS FOR DINNER. OF COURSE I WAS WALKING SLOWER BUT I AM SO GRATEFUL AND SURPRISED AND JUST HOW BRILLIANTLY MY BODY HAS REACTED TO THE WHOLE PROCESS AND CONTINUING TOO GET BETTER EVERY DAY! I TOOK MY BANDAGE OFF A WEEK LATER, FINISHED MY BLOOD COT JAGS 10 DAYS LATER - THESE I HATED HAVING TO JAG MY BELLY EVERYDAY BUT I JUST SEEN IT AS THESE ARE POTENTIALLY SAVING MY LIFE JUST GET THEM DONE AND ARRANGED A NEWBORN PHOTOSHOOT FOR CONOR FOR WHEN HE WAS 1 WEEK OLD. I TOOK SOME PHOTOS ON MY PHONE TOO OF THAT DAY WHICH I HAVE ATTACHED A COUPLE, SO EXCITED FOR THE PROFESSIONAL ONES TO COME THROUGH. LAST WEEKEND I EVEN HAD MY 1ST DRINK WHICH I LOVED , A PERFECT WEE GIRLIE NIGHT IN MINE TO EASE ME BACK IN! MY AMAZING MUM ALREADY TAKES MY NEPHEW AT ONE NIGHT AT THE WEEKEND WHICH MEANS CONOR NOW JOINS THEM TOO! IT FELT STRANGE HAVING AN EVENING AND MORNING TO MYSELF NOT LOOKING AFTER CONOR BUT ALSO FELT GREAT TOO. I KNOW I NEED TO WATCH I DON’T DO TOO MUCH WHICH I AM ALTHOUGH IT MAY NOT SOUND IT. TONIGHT I AM HEADING UP THE FORT WITH MY MUM AND CONOR FOR SOME CHRISTMAS SHOPPING AND A WAGAMAMAS WHICH I HAVE BEEN WANTING FOR AGES.
