Unlike most i'm afraid i dont have a horror story. I actually enjoyed my labour (weird i know) i went into labour on my due day and after 24 hours of ions went to Mayday hospital in croydon and went into their birthing centre 5 cm's by that point. I was lucky enough to be able to get the birthing pool i wanted. So got in the pool and had my gas and air, was really relaxing and my midwives were great. I had the same ones from start to finish. after 10 hours in the pool joseph was born into the water. Such a magical moment. And because i was in the birthing centre my husband was allowed to stay the first night with us. It was great.
