Yay to perfect Henry!!!!! Over the moon for you barbie

Hi girls I'm back!!!!

Firstly sorry for lack of replies and text sent. I have every single one of your messages and treasure them greatly.

Due to the fact that Henry wasn't planned to be with us until next Sunday (congrats vjay, you got it right) and. The fact I didn't bargin on going into labour I had little time to think about topping up the phone credit. So when it came to sending out the text I just sent one to vjay as she was the last person I text, I knew she would be good enough to update the thread for me too Smile

The hospital wing that I was in was totally modern, cameras in the nursery so you could watch baby in your room, room service etc but no bloody Internet!
I missed you all!

I will fill you in once I get two minutes but just wanted to say he is perfect, no band damage!

Love to you all

Barbie Hope you are all settling in well, what does Dolly think of her baby brother?

I was going to do a mega catch up but I'm off to bed for an early night, been having a few problems sleeping lately Hmm wonder if that's a symptom? Also had a nightmare the other night that I was pg, all was well at scan etc, then gave birth unexpectedly to 6 babies!!!! All I did was cry!! Well AF is due Friday so we'll see if we've caught the egg this month Smile

4ever glad you feel in a better place about your mum, it must have been a huge shock. How's your mum taken it?

louey barbie didn't mention anything about the band and I didn't like to ask, I'm sure she'll be on here soon enough to update us all. I still can't believe he's here already Grin

Hi blue it's good to see you, what do you do on the PTA, I've thought about joining ours but I just don't seem to have the time, maybe once my studies are over.

Hope your all having good weekends, we took the boys bowling today and ajay loved it, clapping and high-fiving after every bowl Grin

Nhs called back, nowt to worry about thankfully! She's napping now bless her! Also thanks everyone for the tx & posts about my mum, means a lot to have your support.. Smile Definitely feeling more positive now, looked at some forums with positive stories of taking yrs to progress to dialysis/transplant stage, & spoke to the dr again too who is highly optimistic, so much reassured thankfully.. Just the initial shock of it all & scaremongering google!

Barbies news has really made my day! Grin I won't lie, I thought it may be hard to hear but I felt really excited and thrilled for her when I read the post..! Having Summer this time around makes all the difference.. Smile So sweet as well, have a few new unopened toys in the toychest and guess what Summer pulled out this morning? Her very first Barbie! Grin How very apt!

Quite momentous to have the first of our second round of graduates! Grin Wine all round to celebrate this evening methinks!

Just waiting for nhs direct to call back, Summer got hold of the febreze Confused mainly down her jim jams but thought id better check with them to be safe in case she might of swallowed any... Hmm She seems fine and her usual hyper self so not overly concerned but better safe than sorry eh?!

Loueytb3 · 28/01/2012 11:10

BuddhaBelly · 28/01/2012 10:00

SmileSmileSmile
Henry James was born this morning Smile
I woke up to a message from barbie, the section was booked for next Sunday but she went into labour, got to hospital and was 5cm. Ended with an emcs as the cord was wrapped round his neck twice and he was breech! He was born at 6:45 Dubai time and weighed 6lb 4oz.

Congratulations to the barbiefamily Grin

4everhopeful · 27/01/2012 13:18
