After pushing me off the due september/october thread onto the november thread, DD finally appeared at 9.55am on 4/11.
She weighed in at 9lb 8oz and was eventually named Lydia Athene.
She's doing fine despite the attentions of ds's who think she's the greatest toy ever and a mum who is horrified by all the little crevices hidden in the nappy. I've only ever changed boys!!!

Thanks all, esp about name as she's been Sofia for the last 3 months - but we decided she didn't look like one when she finally appeared!
