Re: Where were you born?
Apparently i was such a big baby and my mum was so tiny,i nearly killed her during labour.Her heart stopped and they had to shock her back
Good job she was in a hospital rather than a caravan eh?

You're Mum must have been some woman. It amazes me how people coped with 5 kids in a tiny home. I need space and I only have 3! Canada is just the right size!

Re: Where were you born?
My own two were both born in hospital but I delivered by water birth, so couldn't have any pain relief. Meant that I felt EVERYTHING! Ouch bl***y ouch.
They came out clean though!

Re: Where were you born?
Walsgrave hospital, Coventry.
00.02, Sunday 13th October 1968, with midwife yelling at my mother to push harder to try and get me out on the 12th, she failed, but at least it wasn't a friday!
As my mother tells me every year they were having a lovely indian summer...Parents lived in a small flat in Coventry, near the main railway station.
All rather boring really, apparently I was cute, smiley baby who was very well behaved...
Have always thought she brought the wrong one home, I turned into a bit off a rebel...gave them a great deal of worry over the years, but they always loved me....
Think I turned out ok in the end, so thanks spambles and spadiwinkles..
Don't ask!

Re: Where were you born?
It's all a bit sad really, I am sooooo excited about the weekend, god know's what I'll be like if we make it to Canada...
OH is being abit of a damp squid, what we going to get out of it, we can't afford it, blah, blah.
Told him I'm paying, we get to meet like minded people with their own experiences, so shut up and chill..
Bloody men...If I didn't need him to get to Canada I'd go on my own with the kids, Chris if you read this, I'm joking, well a bit, depends on how you behave!
