Both of mine we...Oh sweetie - sending lots of hugs<br /><br />Both of mine were super fast too (Littler was about 40 minutes) and people just do not understand how scary it is to be alone, in incredible pain and not knowing how long it will last. There is no time to think, to get ready, to acclimatise to labour, to drive anywhere, to have any control over the process. It is the scariest most alone time of my life<br /><br />In both my cases the MW only just arrived before the baby, and we were lucky and had planned for a homebirth both times<br /><br />Good luck, it will be ok - has your MW talked you through delivering the baby, when to call the paramedics if she can't make it (we had them called but asked that they let the MW lead because she was here fractionally sooner and I didn't want fuss) - we had a session before Littler where she went through what to do if things went too fast<br /><br />Will keep everything crossed you get to 37 weeks and the baby takes at least half an hour to get hereMuddling Alonghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04702217530704657676noreply@blogger.com
