Hi ladies,

I would like to announce the birth of my second boy born at 11:34, last night weighing 7lb 7oz! 37 plus 2 days.

HE WAS BORN NATURALLY!!! just to gas and air and pethadine, I avoided a sliding scale and managed to keep my sugars between 5 - 7 Mml. I only needed one pesery aswell


Baby’s all healthy. His sugars are normal! I have had the perfect birth. The consultants wanted to give me an epidural but I said I wanted to try and do it alone and see how I got on!! Positive mind set worked along with watching Micheal McIntyre and realising natural endorphins I reckon

Xx

@Madelinelowery . I'm not a lady.
But I would still like to offer my congratulations and admiration for keeping the " d " under control at such an exhausting and demanding time.:)

This is the best news to round off a genuinely awful day. I'm so happy for you and your family(+1!) - congratulations on such a wonderful birthing experience - it's a story you're never going to stop feeling great about when you tell it - and for managing your diabetes like a champ.

Your Mamma-Fu is strong! :)

Fantastic news. You're a brillant mum already. No doubt there.
The rest will be nothing to what you've just done.
You should sail it.

Well well done!

I've done it twice and last one in my 40s. A great achievement on insulin. Brilliant. :)
