Hello my name is Rachel and I live in Gloucestershire. I am married with 4 children. I had many problems in all my pregnancies. My eldest was born 10 weeks premature, 2nd was footling breach, 3rd I suffered with depression during and after. My youngest was born at 31 weeks, due to placenta previa. I suffered a massive blood loss, and was rushed into surgery. When they removed my placenta I bled out and my heart stopped. Myself and baby were both on life support machine. 2 weeks after he came home, I fell down the stairs and broke my back. A year later I had 3 disks prolapse. After 5 years my consultant found my nerves was in the wrong place. An I also have scoliosis. He operated last August, and I'm now in pain both legs. I have IBS, Anxiety disorder, depression, insecure, paranoid. I want to be me again
