'I suddenly felt the baby’s head dropping down again'

‘This baby won’t be small,’ my midwife said at my antenatal appointment. ‘I’d say around the 9lb mark.’

Ten days past my due date, I went to run William a bath, but found there was no hot water. Our boiler had broken. When he finally woke up, Kevin texted his parents to let them know what was happening, while I breathed through each contraction. He also phoned the utility company to call out an emergency engineer, but apologetically handed me the phone – the account was in my name, so I had to request the repair. I just about managed a short conversation!

I went downstairs and longed to get into the birthing pool. But with no sign of the engineer, how would we get hot water? At about 11am, two incredibly intense contractions gripped my bump and I visualised standing on a beach, waves rising and subsiding during my contractions. Fleetingly, my calm was shattered andI felt a urge to bear down and I put all my energy into pushing. I placed my hands down and felt the baby’s head, but after a while it seemed to pop back up.

Gazing at his face, I felt a rush of love. He breastfed straight away, non-stop for the next 45 minutes. As we waited for him to finish, so he could be weighed, I wondered about his size.
