Default Re: 1st birth - pass out?

I sobbed and sobbed and sobbed. I had to pretend I needed to go and get something and hid in the little cupboard coming off the birthing room while I pulled myself together. In fact, all I can remember about my first two weeks on labour ward was being a blubbering wreck. Top tip, don't wear mascara for your first few deliveries!
