=== The Birth ===

I tore during my labour, granted I had been given an epidural as it was looking very likely a c-section would have to be performed, but following a failed attempt at a ventouse delivery out came the forceps! The mention of forceps delivery was pretty scary to me, but again I didn't feel anything, apart from a desire to hear those first baby cries...

It was after my son was born, all 9lb 8ozs of him that the issues started, after he had been cleaned and placed on my chest the "tidy up" procedure started. My partner was handed our baby for cuddles and the doctor got to work stitching me up! There was so much blood on the sheets I was actually quite horrified, I was watching the nurses mopping up and thinking "am I okay"... \
