To be fair I wanted a c-section and my midwife tried to put me off it, saying it was a major operation and I shouldn’t do it unless I had to. I was 40 and it was an IVF pregnancy so I wanted it to be as controlled as possible but she still tried to put me off. In the end my baby was breech so I got to have one but if not I may have just given up asking like Louise did. I do think women’s instincts are ignored a lot of the time.

To be fair, I’m 4’10” and was rather dismayed I wasn’t told that!Also ‘a night nanny for the occasional shift’
Pull the other one, if you hire a night nanny it’s not an arrangement where you can call them if you’re feeling a bit shattered and they’ll pop on over. It’s a proper booking, for 5-6 shifts a week.
Get the impression she wanted someone to say ‘eek you are so tiny and smoll, with hips like a little rotisserie chicken, no way we will let you push a baby out! You’re the littlest expectant mother we’ve ever seen in our careers and lives!’
But no one did
Yeah, 14 year old boys are generally not tiny. The whole puberty thing and allIf anyone is struggling to read it just stick the url in here
My favorite bit is how she knew from 12 weeks pregnant that she wasn’t being listened to but also didn’t want to spend her hard earned money on going private
oh and that she said she has the body of a 14 year old boy, what a strange thing to say.

Still with the bleeping bottle. Is he going to be going into reception, clutching a bot bot (almost threw up in my mouth typing that but they strike me as the type to call a bottle that
)I agree. With my 1st I was under a lovely consultant who felt women should chose how to give birth(we took years to conceive, he felt the most important part was that I and the baby came out the other side safely), with my 2nd I met a different doc each visit- one said my height was the cut off for natural births so I should have a section and another berated me for wanting one, especially as I had a toddler at home. In the end I went into labour with my 2nd a week before section date but never dilated, her head didn’t even engage so ended up with section anyway. A nurse told me afterwards that my pelvis was too small.
They clearly didn’t care that she was the first woman to be pregnant.
Re c-section request not being listened to (find this hard to believe really), isn’t it highly probable that the consultant/midwife/whoever took a look at her near-professional athlete frame and thought, do you know what, if she wasn’t so incredibly fit and healthy then maybe a Caesarian would be sensible, but no, this is Louise Thompson, look at her, though she may be unbelievably and incredibly small, almost as small as a 14 year old boy, she is the peak of physical fitness.
Looks like one of the dogs has shat it out
I noticed that even in the midst of an emergency in hospital she still has to mention how the medical staff were so horrified by her condition that they were shaking lol.
Wtf sorry guys but I couldn't resist

I mean the first part sounds like something that happens most days on a delivery ward
As if the medical staff were shaking, unless they popped down to the lecture room and got a group of students to come and help out for the experience. She makes it sound like she was in a field hospital after being hauled off a battlefield in 1914.
She talks a lot about her body being like a child’s. Makes Ryan’s attraction to her all the more grim. If my partner kept talking like that I would tell them to please stop and if they didn’t I would find it a massive turn off.If anyone is struggling to read it just stick the url in here

Her next book should be titled
'However can my brilliance be captured in just one book'
'Second book Explosions of Brilliance Everywhere'
Third book 'If I can't blow them away with my brilliance, I'll baffle them with my bullshit'

I think ‘begged’ the doctors for a colon removal is quite telling actually. Presumably she was encouraged to try to manage it with diet and medication instead, at least for the foreseeable future, but knowing what we know about Loopy, I’m almost certain she did a hell of a lot of self sabotage along the way. I can well believe she told the medical team that she couldn’t eat incase she shat herself but we all know that’s not true. It’s hardly as of she was housebound either, she was on the bloody pistes of France in a white ski suit in January ffs.
So not in the book then. Just used to try and sell it.
BIB this is what I thought reading it. I've been in a few obstetric emergencies and it is calm, relatively quiet and there would be someone overseeing it and being scribe. Usually the anaesthetist because they are the head of the patient and have a good overview of the theatre.
It is entirely possible to lose your whole blood volume. As said above, as it is being pumped in, is coming out. It is unusual for her to have not been out under a GA and even more odd that Ryan was still in the room. Normally any hint of things going wrong, the partner is ushered out.
I imagine there’s truth in what she said but it is highly embellished. The more I see of TT the more it becomes clear that she has quite serious mental issues and is an absolutely massive liar.
I do believe she lost that amount of blood. Which is obviously very scary.
