Today my baby girl is turning 6. She was our surprise pregnancy and after having 2 we were excited and having a new addition. However that soon passed as I became very I'll. I could eat as it made me sick and I became tired and found pregnancy hard nothing like the last two. I was convinced we were having a boy because it was so different from the other two girls so was shocked to find it was another. Happy all the same as she was healthy despite me being ill. The night before her arrival rob was at work and me and the other two caught the Sicky bug so spent the day and half the night sharing the bathroom. After they had settled exhausted I too went to bed. After an hour I soon woke up in terrible pain I knew it wasn't labour or contractions and I was scared. Rob left work early and took me to the hospital. Concerned they admitted me overnight as the pain was bad and baby had slowed. I had never been more frightened in my life. It was lucky they did keep me in tho as 10am the following morning my labour finally started and 25mins (I kid you not...I didn't even make it to a delivery room from the ward) our baby girl was born. However unlike holding the other two the first few mins of arrival she was ripped away before I even sore her. She wasn't breathing. I had 3 miscarriages before so knows the pain of loosing a child but I couldn't bear the thought of what may happen now. 5mins later which seemed a lifetime a little cry was heard and our precious Emily was here and well. Since then she has grown into a funny caring beautiful little lady..although strong willed at times and has been the most stressful out the 3 we wouldn't change her for the world. She is truly amazing and am thankful every day she is here with us.
Happy 6th Birthday Emily, we all love you and your sisters very much. I hope you have the perfect day xxxx
