My baby boy is here, born 7/7/16 at 12.32 weighing 7lb 15. He was due 20th July but csection was brought forward due to IUGR, breech and reduced movements. Arrived at the hospital at 8am  was talked through the procedure. Met the anaesthetist, doctors and midwife. Had a scan to check his position (bilateral breech) feet up in front of face and bum engaged! Was taken to theatre at 11.15, had spinal and was prepared for transfusion (had a post partum heamorage in 1st pregnancy) csection started at 12.00 it'll end man was well and truly stuck and it took 32 minutes to get him out using a metal thing that looked like a shoe horn. He wee'd as he came out on the surgeons. Didn't cry straight away but looked fine. Had a quick check agar score of 9 and then tried to do some skin to skin. Weight was 71b 15. Not bad for a baby with restricted growth. Was stitched up and back on the ward by 1.30. He's now 3 days old. He's having formula milk because my milk just hasn't come in yet. I'm not even producing colostrum 😒. Was sent home 
 esterday after 24 hours. In a lot of pain but over the moon!!!!!!
