Text of the page (random words):
couch and tv a multi adjustable bed in another area with a tv and large shower i was put on a monitor watching foetal movement and the baby s heart rate i weight for my obstetrician who luckily was on call that day she arrived at 8am and suggested that i get induced she said most people s whose waters brake before contractions don t go into natural labour so at 9 50am i was put in the oxytocin contractions started slowly over the next two hours from a period pain like cramp that developed into excruciating painful contractions i used gas which totally whacked me out at the start troy laughed at me because i was talking funny i remember having to turn the radio of because the sounds were vibrating in my head at around 1pm i was checked and i had only become 4cm dilated and was at the end of my pain threshold the epidural word came up i was hoping to avoid this and try pethidine but we were worried about how the pethidine would after a premature baby would it make it hard for it to breath i was told it is normally 1cm an hour so i still had 5 6 hours to go i said give me the epidural the relief was quick and for the first time in 3 hours i relaxed and smiled the contraction pain was gone but i still felt pressure and discomfort during each contraction which over time got worse and worse i could still lift my legs up i had expected to be completely numb from the waist down the pressure got worse and worse and the need to push came sitting my hands behind my thighs and my legs in the air i pushed and pushed and pushed i felt like my pelvis was being ripped apart i screamed in pain after each push i was fully dilated and it was time for bubs to come but he didn t my obstetrician came in and pushed and pushed again and still nothing after 1hour of pushing i was tired and exhausted and in excruciating pain constantly i can t do it again just breathe and relax you can do it hon but bubs was just not coming out forceps were tried which felt like i was being ripped apart still no luck next suction and after what felt like 10 contractions and what felt like someone trying to pull my spine out through my vagina we had success do you want to touch it s head i reached down and feel a slimy boney ball that was my baby after another push his upper body was pulled out i could see it s little body all white and slimy it s curled up arms and screwed up face under the bright lights it s legs were still inside me and i used every last bit of energy i had which had actually run out about 2 hours ago and with a final contraction and push it was out at last a feeling of relief from pain and a little bundle of arms and legs were placed on my chest poor bub and his big forcep mark on his face have you looked what it is i glimpsed down the umbilical cord was tangled up in its legs but i didn t see any bits i think it s a girl the cord moved out of the way are you sure it s a boy hi max a boy my husband and i had created that i carried around in my belly for 36 weeks and 3 days that had kicked me in the middle of the night performed side stretches that made me jump had turned my boobs into saggy moosh bags and my belly into a taut uncomfortable ball he was out of my belly and lying on my chest with as little screwed up face covered in gunk born at 6 25pm on the 5 th of july 3 310kgs 37cm head circumference 47cm long his breathing was short grunts he was taken by the nurses and checked over and it was decided that he needed to be taken to the special care nursery and check over and put in a humidicrib to get his breathing right troy went along and i was left on the bed alone with my placenta sitting in a tray close by i didn t feel alone scared or annoyed that everyone had left me i just felt relief and shock i rang my best friends brett and bron and don t really remember what i said just that i was so happy troy came back with all good news i just had to weigh for the epidural to wear off so i could go and see him at the nursery after a shower i was wheeled to see max he was in a humidi crib with tubes and sensors everywhere he was o cute and sweet with his bruised and battered head from the delivery his chubby cheeks little cried that remind me of lamb and his constant hiccups his little eyes slowly opening to gaze into mine for the first time his sore head from the suction over the next few days as he woke up more i started feeding him and replacing his tube feeds by the thursday i was getting 5 5 marks for his feeds and they took the tubes out he was on the road to coming home on saturday but he stared getting yellow very yellow so he had to go under some uv lamps for 24 hours with little covers over his eyes to help get the jaundice under control everytime i had to leave him in the nursery and go back to my room i cried it was amazing how much love i had already for my little man it ached inside to be away from him i was told when i was pregnant that having a child is like having a piece of your soul outside your body in your child this description scared me like i would be losing a part of myself but all i feel is full of love and this overwhelming urge to protect my son i joke with troy that i am a tiger and he is my cub i am daunted by my new job as mother worried i am going to make mistakes that i won t know what to do but i know i am going to do the best i possibly can and i couldn t love anybody as much as i love max and troy right now i am the luckiest woman in the world he looks drunk after i feed him this was 6 weeks ago how the time has flown my little man is growing ferociously he is getting so heavy i feel like i have spent the last 6 weeks sleeping breastfeeding and trying to get to slept everything is going well just spending my time looking after max he is a good baby doesn t cry heaps sleeps lots i can t wait for when he smiles he only smiles in his sleep at the moment i love dressing him up and taking photos of him the thankyou card photo i got printed out these are my two favourite outfits puppy feet polar bears and stripes anyways just thought i would share my joy with you all i am sure in the near future i will have spare time again to craft but at the moment i am crafting a baby posted by katy at 2 42 pm 16 notes left themes max pregnancy monday june 14 2010 something looks fishy the first item i purchased to start decorating the baby room was a plain nappy stacker from spotlight for 5 i took my trip to spotlight and did my usual baby brain shop of aimlessly wandering around with no plan to what i am actually doing and ending up at the checkout with a basket full of stuff i don t actually need but managed to end up with some felt and some fabric that reminded me of the rainbow fishes shimmery scales i traced around the rainbow fish from the book i am using as inspiration and created this fish i really like the scales kind of a japanese feel to them i reckon i also stitched some reedy seaweed stuff on the sides too next was more fish to use around the room i think these will go on the curtains the next mission and some little fish too so as you can see i am getting some creativity back into my life for the first time since we moved houses in november it feels great and i am sure it will give me plenty to do when i finish work in two weeks my husband is getting flashbacls to previous crafty spurts when the whole house was covered in fabric and crap so next is the curtains i am thinking a blockout curtain in the window frame and a translucent one over the top with my fishes sewn on another trip to spotlight this time i am making a list posted by katy at 9 30 am 2 notes left themes nursery sunday june 13 2010 the story so far i am 33 weeks pregnant the baby is due on the 29th of july and i have started being creative again it started with painting the nursery back is this post i had considered having an underwater theme based on the book the rainbow fish in my brain i had the concept of being underwater and have the water line above my head and having this waterline as kind of a border around the top of the room the colours of blue teal and purple so after stealing loads of colour samples from bunnings though the amount of money i have spent there in the last 3 months i should have shares in bunnings i came up with this colour scheme ice pack quarter bottom left for the main walls lagoona teal bottom middle for the wave or water line and spritzig quarter bottom right as the sky above the water line as usual what i have in my head and actually executing the idea are two different things and as usual i forget that i am carrying around one hell of a baby belly i will get to that later it is humongous so i had husband s help with the main wall bit but did the roof waves and sky all by my self mostly while he was playing playstation or making baked goods like scones for me my pregnancy craving so here it is i am very happy with it and the colour are so peaceful my wave in 2 parts are a little spaz but i am so happy with it the room is still in a bit of a shambles we haven t decided whether to have the cot in our room as recommended by the sids people sudden infant death syndrome for the first few months or to put in straight in the baby room any advice from anyone is appreciated so we haven t put it up yet the change table in the picture above was bought cheap on ebay and i sanded it back and painted it myself i love it but i gave up on doing the same with a 2nd hand cot i bought and purchased another on from ikea after a keno win so next is to decorate posted by katy at 9 25 pm 8 notes left themes nursery friday march 19 2010 calling all mums and dads all you mummys and daddys out there i would love to here your thoughts on baby
