I had a baby today

[NewestMum]

That’s all. I had a baby today (actually yesterday! But I haven’t been to sleep yet). And I’m in hospital and I’m looking at her perfect, tiny face, and I am completely turned inside out and annihilated by love for her.

Nothing has ever felt like this.

Congratulations ❤️. Such a special time. Enjoy x

Congratulations- I'm so looking forward to being a grandma

And congratulations OP, I remember that feeling so well, still feel it every day

What a lovely post. When I had my ds, 17 years ago, it was the end of the evening and I hardly slept a wink as I just looked at him, stroked his face, so utterly in love, and felt so very lucky to be his mum, just so excited about getting to know him. Welcome to motherhood @NewestMum - the love sees you through the tricky, tired times.

Congratulations ❤️ this post just warmed my cold heart.

That was me almost three years ago.... I still can't believe she's mine 💗🥰

Congratulations on your new baby. Look after yourself and enjoy every last minute.

Congratulations OP! I remember this feeling well and just adored the time the two of us.

One bit of advice I’d pass on is make sure your partner, family or even a nurse takes a photo of you and baby (if that’s something you want of course!). All my photos of me and baby in hospital were selfies and I wish I had gotten a normal photo.

Congratulations again and welcome to the world little one ❤️

The feeling is the best ever . Nothing can replicate

Congratulations OP!

I am a midwife and I have the absolute honour and pleasure of witnessing this love on a regular basis and it gets me every time.

I still get this feeling with my own child who is 6, especially when he is sleeping and you like at this perfect, beautiful little human you made and nurtured.

Enjoy every second ❤️

Congrats, my 2 DC are 32 and 28, you never forget this precious time.

That's the drugs talking OP 😁

Kidding! It's an amazing feeling. The next one is the absolute confusion when they "let" you take her home.

Congratulations! Take loads of video. I took so many photos but not as many videos and I love watching them back. Mine is now a toddler and I still feel completely overwhelmed by how I feel about him.

@NewestMum Just magical isn’t it. The little face. You can’t quite believe you’ve done it. Enjoy her ❤️ x

Congratulations!

But show us a pic... 🤩

Congratulations!
Make the most of every moment, they grow so fast! (My dd is currently asleep on me, 6 months old.) Each cuddle is special x

Congratulations 👩‍🍼
God sent you a best friend 🥰
Xx

Warmest congratulations OP
