florence minnie was born on wednesday 29th july at 3:25 am. she's 6lbs11oz (3.01kg) with massses of black hair. i was induced, and labour was about 15 hours in total. i had a fantastic epidural, and pushed her out myself in 15 minutes - verry different to ds' ventouse & forceps assisted arrival (she's a pound lighter than he was). she's breastfeeding with gusto. ds is being a star, very interested and gentle. we are thoroughly enjoying being a family of 4.
