'My labour only lasted 10 minutes!' 🌪One mum shares her real birth story

Laura Paine, 37, an HR manager, lives in Derby, with husband Steve and daughters Ruby, 22 months, and Cara, four weeks.so was being monitored, and 10 days before I was due, I spent the day in hospital having my blood pressure and the baby’s activity checked.

‘I think I’m going to have to push,’ I told him. He urged me not to yet, but as I put my hand between my legs I could feel the baby’s head. I don’t think it was until that moment that I really believed the baby was actually coming. ‘You’re going to have to come here and catch the baby,’ I said. Then another almighty contraction came over me,It all happened so quickly, there really wasn’t any time to panic or get anything ready.

The 999 operator talked Steve through what he needed to do to help us, and the paramedics arrived at our house within five minutes. They called the midwife team, who were with us less than an hour later. We managed to stay pretty calm – there just wasn’t time to panic. Thankfully, Ruby stayed asleep in her bedroom while most of the commotion was going on. She did wake up at around 11.30pm, so Steve and my sister took it in turns to sit with her downstairs until she was ready to go back to sleep.
