First Good Event that changed my life.

Well where do i start... 

    My name is Bethany Garner and i was born 14th September 1997 to Andrea and Christopher at 3:52 am. My mum and dad were not together when i was born but when I was 2 they tried to give it another go but they didn't last long. I lived with my mum but saw my dad on a weekly basis most of my life. 

    When I was in year 11 at Barnsley Academy I met a boy called Aaron and we started dating on 2nd December 2013. By 23rd May 2014 i found out i was pregnant. The baby was due on 26th January 2015. During the year I was pregnant, I went to Turkey with family for 2 weeks, came home for 2 days then went to Spain with my dad, nannan and my brother. so I missed my 12 week scan but I had a 15 week scan when i got back. On 08/09/2014 I have my 20 week scan and we found out we were having a little boy. I was so happy and excited as I was hoping to have a little boy for my first baby to be a big brother to look after all the others; if other came in the future. 

   On 01/01/2015 @ 11:30 am I felt just a strange twinge in my lower back that kept coming and going and getting stronger. By half 3 my mum suggested to get in the bath to try and calm my "braxon hicks" but it didn't help. At about half past 5 my mum had made a full roast dinner as it was New Years Day but was the pain become constant and felt like a belt or band around my belly and back but was constant. So by 6 pm I couldn't eat my dinner as I was so uncomfortable so my mum called the maternity ward. After a few minuets of explaining my symptoms they told me i need to come up as it sounded like i had a bad water infection, as I do get them often; it didn't seem strange. We arrived at the ward by 6:30 after my dad came and took me to the hospital. The midwife came and examining me then told me I was 4-5 centimetres dilated!!!!!! I WAS IN LABOR !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! By 7:30 pm i was in my delivery room and on gas and air. At 20:32 pm on 1st January 2015 I gave birth to my first child Leo, weighing 5lb 9oz and was 36 weeks and 3 days when I gave birth to him so he was classed as a prem, baby as he was before 37 weeks. 

    Now as of today my son is 5 years old, to be 6 in January, and will be in year 1 in just a few weeks. My, how time fly's in the blink of an eye. He become such an amazing little boy that I love with all of my heart and am looking forward to watch him grown into a fabulous young man and be the best he can be and achieve his goals that he would like to through his life. 

    As for me and his dad; we have been on off from 2013 to 2017 but it didn't really have a happy ending. Although in January 2017 I moved out of my mum's and into a house of my own with Leo and his dad. It didn't last long and just made the relationship more hostile so by 17th May 2017 he moved and out and we have not been back together since.     

     

Well that's all for this post I guess but I hope you readers keep updated on whats its like to be me throughout my life events.
