Well Bethany Anna Grace was born this morning at 4.25am after an hour and a half of labour. She weighed 8lbs 5ozs and is absolutely beautiful. Hard labour but she shot out at the end, I'm fine have a tear but no stitches, afterpains are hell though this is the first time DP has allowed me out of bed and downstairs to the PC. She has had a few wee feeds but is tired out bless her.

Am so happy and relieved
