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!

You did a better job than me. Mine landed in the loo. I only went for a shit!

My goodness, he's cute! Congratulations! Flowers

I also like the way you wrote that your DH is an engineer, by way of explanation for why he wasn't in the room last time! Grin

Just wanted to add my congratulations! My labours were all quick but nothing in comparison to that! One was born on the stretcher in the ambulance though.

Your little lad is wonderfully perfect and I am in utter, utter awe of you. Enjoy your new arrival.
