Thomcat has her kitten

[THOMCATsForLifeNotJustForXmas]

And she really is a little kitten

Had the home birth I wanted, took 4 hours from start to finish. She weighed 8lb 4oz.

Haven't decided on name yet, need to get to know her a bit better.

She's breastfed but only a couple of times, she spent the rest of the day sleeping. She's so peaceful and so lovely.

Lottie saw her be born. My bestest friend was here with us and with Lottie all the way through, then as I felt the head come they came into the room with us both. Lottie sat on the end of the bed, totally not freaked, she was really happy and really excited and just said 'Look Baby'.

It was so much more painful this time, bigger baby and in less time but boy - that hurt! But we are all so happy, you can imagine, perfectly in time for Xmas and 2 days after Lotties birthday

A really beautiful baby girl to complement our other beautiful girl.

Pics soon.

Big love, big smiles, just general over the mooness!

Really thrilled for you, TC! Many congratulations!
