This is Mary's Birthing story❣️

Hi Afia, I hope you’re keeping well. Baby Ava arrived into the world in the early hours of yesterday morning just before 4am xx

I went in on Saturday. I was 3 days overdue. Unfortunately my waters went and I had quite a lot of meconium in them. So I wasn’t allowed to use the pool.

Because of the meconium they recommended that I was put on to oxytocin. They waited about 4-5 hours to see if anything would happen naturally but my contractions just weren’t taking off.

Once I got the oxytocin drip in my contractions were fast but incredibly strong. I lasted about 3 hours and my yoga breathing techniques helped immensely. The midwife even commented that my breathing was amazing.

But with the intensity of the oxytocin and my own body told me that I needed some help. I requested the epidural when I was only at 3-4 centimetres.

I was really glad of it as I just couldn’t cope without it.

She was subsequently born less than 2 hours after I got the epidural. She came out in 3 good contractions and she was just perfect.

Up until I got the epidural I remained very active in pre-labour and then labour. So from 7pm till 1.30am I was very active. I stood for long periods of time. I sat upright some of the time. At other points I squatted. I done table top and figure of 8’s.

I think this is how I pushed her out so quick and didn’t have any need for stitches as I had no tears at all.

You were in my head a lot. I could hear you saying ‘every outward breath is the anecdote to pain’. So the yoga practice greatly helped me.

Thank you very much for all of your guidance, both my husband and the midwife couldn’t believe how calm I was in spite of all that was going on.

Please pass on my well wishes to Kate. Tell her to keep up with the yoga practices as it is just so beneficial for labour. And please do tell her my labour story, or anyone else who might like to hear.

Thanks again for everything Afia ###
