Ah nooo.. thats not what I really wanted to hear :rolleyes:
It just I only hope I will never have to go back to that Unit 3.. simply just the experience of another girl going through her labour right beside me scared me to death.. I was not afraid of labour at all but you know when you hear it..it gets a bit real and as i said scary.. I even wonder if she was still suppose to be there.. they only brought her to delivery room when she was on 9cm and they could see the head.. she gave them massive push too.. the midwifes were like.. ah no we dont want you to push now.. we will bring you to the delivery room to have your baby.. surely that was not her fault they left it so late to move her! She had a baby boy after she gave them another two pushes.. I would have thought she would have been in delivery ward as soon as she went into labour?!!

Elle, seriously, it's not as bad as it sounds.
. If it was, none of us would ever go back for another - and most of us do!
I have to admit I'm surprised that the lady was left until she was 9cm before being moved to delivery - around 6 or 7cm would be more common.
Maybe the delivery ward was full? I dunno?

It can happen that if a woman is coping really well with her pains on unit 3, she might get to 9-10cm before being transferred to the delivery room, especially if it is not her first baby. They won't examine you routinely on unit 3, only when the woman feels that the pains have gotten too bad to cope with, or when the midwife suspects that the woman is in labour (obviously this can be missed when the ward is busy, but generally woman are great at speaking up when they aren't coping!)
You'll be fine in labour! You have no choice but to be fine! Woman are designed to cope, thats why we are the fairer sex Megan is only 3 months old, but I can't wait to do it again! 0 -
