It was the 9th December and I had my final midwife's appointment before getting transfered transferred to consulted Consultant led care at the Hospital due to it been a IVF pregnancy. All was well at the appointment ; I was measuring beyond my dates and the baby seemed very happy.  Over the weekend following this appointment all was well, . We had just come home from my mums mum's house after having a loverly sunday lovely Sunday dinner with her and a few friends, . I felt so tired , as you do in late pregnancy, So so I went to run a bath to have a nice soak before going to bed but i notice . But I noticed a stange strange type of discharge ( sorry to much info ) and thought to myself I will give the Doctors a ring in the morning. When I went to bed I was out like a light - until bloody midnight what . What was it with midnight and this baby he ? He always woke me up at the same time. So, So as i I did every other night , I went down stairs for a drink and to lay on the settee.Just  I was just dozing off to sleep when I had this funny sensation across my tummy . I knew straight away I was in labour. I paced up and down the living room before waking up Paul , who , bless him , had only had two hours sleep since the day before , due to working nights, .   He drove me crazy when he finally got up " . Do I want a bath? NO, ! Do I want my back rubbing? NO, ! Do I want to walk? NO," ! Would he just leave me alone ? YES , please.! I was 34 weeks gone so knew it was early , but worry didn't even cross my mind . I dont don't know why , it just didn't , and it didn't seem to worry the Hospital eighter, they either. They said to make my way in when I was ready and if I wanted a bath before I came that was finetoo.  The first forteen fourteen hours past passed quickly with just paracetomol paracetamol. I then I had an Epidural and slept right upto up to the point of needing to push so ! So that is what I did next, . He was born very quickly , in just two pushes. My son was finally here he . He was crying and screaming no end and it was the best sound I had ever heard in my life, . It then hit that he was premeture, Is he ok? premature! I remember asking if he was ok as they put him in a Incubator and took him out of the room, . "He is just fine, we . We have just taken him to be checked out by our neonatal team ," the midwife replied.  A couple of hours later me and my husband was and I were taken to go see our son for the first real time, emotion . Emotion soon hit us both and we was overwelmed were overwhelmed with tears of joy, . We was were finally parents and our dreams had been answered this . This little 5lb 9oz beautiful baby boy was ours.
