For wanting to show off?!

Completely don't know where to post this, and completely outing but am very chuffed that early hours of Tuesday morning I self delivered my baby on the bathroom floor after an extremely quick labour. Paramedics turned up about 5 mins later but job done at that point. First thing I noticed was that he had a penis - so that was wrong as well!!! Told 95% girl - don't think so!!

Just wanted to feel proud of myself - sorry to bore you all!

OMG. You are absolutely allowed to show off. Congratulations and well done. I can't imagine coping with that in a million years!

That's not showing off, it's flipping marvellous! Hope you both are doing fine.

TooSmittle · 02/02/2017 12:20

Blimey, very well done! Big congratulations on your new arrival Flowers

Would it be very nosy to ask you to tell more of the story? I want to hear how it came to happen! My last labour I was squawking for the "good drugs" as soon as it all kicked off, my neighbours would have thought I was being murdered if I'd done it at home Grin

Catsick36 · 02/02/2017 12:20

And congratulations as well

gabsdot · 02/02/2017 12:23

I'm in awe, congratulations!
A mental picture of a proud emotional mum and brand new slippery baby
sitting on a black and white tiled bathroom floor played in my head as I
read you story and now I can hardly see - someone nearby must be peeling onions. Flowers

KayTee87 · 02/02/2017 12:31
