“I spent 5 long pregnant weeks in my local hospital bleeding until I hit 35weeks and 6 days. I was supposed to go home for the weekend, but a nurse refused to let me, because she had a bad feeling. Sure enough at 7.32 am the doctors had me signing forms and calling my parents and at 9.52am my daughter was born via emergency cesarean. She was 2.42 kilos and 45.5cm long.
Here is my long awaited moment, I couldn’t believe she was here, I was so happy I couldn’t hold back my tears.” ~Ashleigh.
