Just thought I'd better start a new thread for those of you who would like to see updates before the old one is totally full.

All still good here! I've been a bit low on iron but the tablets REALLY don't agree with me. So I've started just taking one in the morning with orange juice, and having a spoonful of Floridix in the afternoon and making an effort to eat spinach and red meat.
I've been feeling baby OMG moving around a lot more now he's getting bigger and stronger, which is lovely although slightly alarming at times!

We've probably got a maximum of 7 weeks to go now as I understand the drs are not keen for older mums to go much over 39 weeks. Eeeek.
Will keep you all posted.

He is here! Arrived about 4 hours ago, weighing just over 7lb.
I didn’t have to have an emergency caesarean in the end, but needed a little bit of help.
DH and I are totally besotted.

He’s absolutely glorious. Massive congratulations ❤️❤️

Baby Brian in classics before he is a full day old.

Brian should definitely be one of his middle names, and you should print this thread and put it in his baby box.

Hope you are home and managed to get some rest

EmeraldShamrock1 · 28/07/2022 09:52

It's truly a heart warming post.

He is beautiful.
