Natural birth story

Ellen • xE

Lots of poo. Yesterday I created a posted saying my waters had broke well today my baby came woke up at 7 with contractions not a nice way to wake up, waddled around the house, then went for a shower thought I had to poop because I’ve had constipation (does TMI even matter when your pregnant) so I was like I need to poop crying on the toilet, kept coming in and out of the shower after nearly 4 hours of back and forwards I felt baby’s head start to come out and told my other half obviously he was like let’s go to the hospital me being in heavy labour I was like nope I need to poo, well baby wasn’t waiting and I didn’t need to poo I gave birth accidentally at home. The ambulance team were amazing, and personally I think the placenta feels like the bags you bring your fish home in, What I’ve learned if my other half says let’s go to the hospital then maybe I should go. I gave birth to a healthy 7lbs 5oz baby girl called Alya Paige. Mammy and baby are both home safe and healthy
