Is anyone else watching again and waiting for her to go into labour? I spent hours watching her two years ago. Very relaxing and therapeutic.

I happened to be watching when she gave birth to Tajiri. So cute!

Yeah, that's not great. Last time round there seemed to be a big effort put in to make things quiet and comfortable for April, with very minimal disruption.

The children are Jordans. He's the park owner and the children are regular visitors. The others are the vet Dr Tim and the giraffe keepers. Plus Jordan of course.

That's great, I worked in a pub whilst pregnant with the DC but still wouldn't have found it helpful to have drunk people in the Labour room with me.

And?

Still not an ideal environment for a brand new mum, even if she is an experienced mum

Soubriquet · 16/03/2019 17:27

It’s up!!!

Bless it

Well, I think Jordan and the vet and the giraffe keepers should know better. It seems that the live streaming has turned into a big money making farse.

Has anyone seen the calf feed?

ScreamingValenta · 16/03/2019 18:14

The calf was nosing at her tummy but not sure if it fed.

Soubriquet · 16/03/2019 18:33

You possibly won’t see it at the angle of the camera

Bananasarenottheonlyfruit · 16/03/2019 20:02

They are all looking much more settled now, especially Oliver, now that all the audience have dispersed.

ScreamingValenta · 16/03/2019 20:08

Yes, Oliver seems to have settled down now. He was like the stereotype of the expectant father pacing outside the delivery room earlier!

Crunchymum · 16/03/2019 20:26

I remember it well. Actually managed to see her deliver.... Have since had another baby myself (and a fuck load of health crap, me and said baby)

Feels like a lifetime ago.

Crunchymum · 16/03/2019 20:28

Sorry. Saw her have the last baby (missed this one 🙄).

ScreamingValenta · 16/03/2019 20:37

It looks as though the calf is having a good feed now!

Bananasarenottheonlyfruit · 16/03/2019 20:40

Do you think giraffes worry about getting their figure back after having babies?! ,🤣

Justmuddlingalong · 16/03/2019 22:41

It's a boy!

I watched him being born. Whereabouts are they?

Justmuddlingalong · 18/03/2019 12:40

Animal adventure park in New York.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 18/03/2019 13:25

Yay. Congratulations, April.
Another little Prince, how lovely.

Awwlookatmybabyspider · 18/03/2019 13:35

I've just mummy and baby.
She was giving him a kiss, I'm crying.
Theres nothing more adorable than seeing a mummy with her baby.
When you see things like that it does (even if only temporarily,remind you) that its still a beautiful world..
