At about 8pm I had a 'show' when getting out the bath, from then on the pains got worse and worse and by midnight I needed to ring the hospital, I stayed at home for a while longer but then Daddy rang Nanny Montfort to come out and stay with Riley as he was asleep.
We got to hospital at 01:10 and was assessed and was about 3-4cm dilated but my waters were about to break, so went into a delivery room at 02:00, I dont think the midwives expected things to progress so quickly because my waters broke then needed to push and baby Rowan was born at 03:17.
It didnt seem that quick at the time for me and the contractions were MEGA painfull and so was the pushing, thanks to gas & air and lots of back rubbing from Daddy. I managed to do it. (asked for something stronger but labour progressed so quick there was no time).
Rowan weighed 9lb 14oz which shocked everyone.
After the birth I felt exhausted, was in shock and my legs were shaking. After a small sleep I went into the bath and felt much better.
We were allowed to go home as soon as we got Rowans blood results back.
By 07:30 we were back home to greet Nanny and Riley (who was just waking up).
HERE IS OUR GORGEOUS NEW ADDITION TO THE FAMILY....ROWAN THOMPSON!
