Nine and a half pounds, at home, no stitches but fuck me that hurt! The really good news is that my SPD already seems to be better (is that even possible?!? Maybe just hormones?) and I've slept for an hour already.

Mmmm leftover pancakes for breakfast and plenty of newborn cuddles (albeit practically toddler-sized already!)

Congratulations.

Dd was 9lb 4 and looked a bit like a rugby player when she was born :)

DS2. He looks exactly like DS1 (8lbs 10) did at about a month old!

well done, well done, well done!

DS2 was that size and I still feel proud of having pushed him out 7 years on Grin

baby will probably be very tall, are you or DP tall?

Thought you were going to say 11lbs, that would be massive!
Congratulations on your new addition

Yes we are both pretty tall. Amazingly no rubber ring needed! One small tear and no stitches which is a huge relief after last time Smile
