Another twins class tonight and learned a lot of new information about the stages of labour and processes of all the various staff. The nurse taking our group is good at making us aware of where we have a choice and right to query certain procedures and know about all our options. Obviously the main desired result is a healthy babiez and mum but being happy with, and in control of one of the most important episodes of your life is seen as another priority.
We got to see all types of tools like suction caps - they look like cute loo unblockers, forceps....invented in 1900BC and unchanged today...probably. And they can all fit up ‘there’ when needed as a 10cm dilated tunnel will appear where previously no tunnel existed.
Oh and 80% of women poop as they push. ‘It is nothing to stress about, we see it everyday and wipe it away so fast you will not even feel or know that it has happened” Well fine...but my husband will!
