good sign


A lovely lady from our antenatal class gave birth last night to a healthy little girl at Hinchingbrooke hospital. My heart has been lifted not only because Mum and baby are doing splendidly, but because she was induced after having weeks of high blood pressure. She went through exactly the same experience as me, and it sounds like her blood pressure just went up again recently so they decided to induce (she's about a week or so behind me). Apparently the birth went smoothly and quickly (we like that!), so it's eased my mind slightly about this whole induction due to high blood pressure thing.

Must think happy thoughts before the midwife comes and take my blood pressure in a couple of hours. Ohm.
