recounts how her miracle baby arrived into the world despite a traumatic birth experience and over a year of trying to conceive.
On the Sunday before I gave birth, I passed my mucus plug throughout the day. At around 2am I woke my wife as my contractions started. We laid snuggled up, with the phone recording them. When it came up with the alert ‘Get your bags ready & go to the hospital’ at 4.30am, we called the birthing centre and the midwife confirmed we should head to hospital.
The midwife examined me and confirmed I was around 4-5cm dilated so I put my bikini and a maternity dress on. I got in the pool around 7cm and laid there breathing deeply through my contractions. I wanted to avoid any pain medication, as I felt I was comfortable enough without it. However, for some reason, my body was reacting to the contractions and I was vomiting - manageable but not pleasant, it still felt like a calm birthing experience.
Unfortunately, from that moment on what was a calm and wonderful day turned to an anxious and traumatic one. The Dr that examined me was aggressive in her examinations and rude to the staff and said they’d do an assisted vaginal delivery with forceps. Several tugs later, the baby was pulled out and seemingly ‘flopped’ onto my stomach; she was covered in blood and it splattered everywhere up my face and neck, so my midwife started cleaning it up.
