Re: Re: Back to back births and Phobias

[Guest guest]

Thanks everyone for all this wonderful info. I really wish I'd done a bit

more to ease DS into the world than being told to lie back for 1/2 hour by

the midwife as she left the room! I haven't yet convinced my DH that things

could have been different, I better get a book about it all if I even get

pregnant again.

Thanks

PS not gone to the funeral after all as DS was very sick last night. DH and

I were up with him from 10.30 to 1.30am. Being a sickness phobic I opted for

clearing up rather than sitting with DS. I felt so ill myself and felt awful

not being able to cuddle DS. DS and I went to bed at noon today, I woke at

4.15pm and DS has just come down at 4.50pm.

What a night/day

- as a fellow sickness phobic I really felt for you when I read

that your DS was ill. I always feel like an awful mum when DD is sick

as I feel really reluctant to touch/cuddle her. Glad you survived it

anyway!
