My ds2, Benjamin Jack, was born on Sunday 9th November at 0853am in Wexham Park Hospital Slough, following a somewhat lengthy labour. He was 4 days overdue and was delivered by ventouse.

We are back home and getting to know each other. DS1, James (22 months), is totally intrigued by his younger brother!

Looking forward to recovering from the birth - most painful thing at the moment is the stitches!!!

Congratulations, welcome to Benjamin Jack, and I hope you feel better soon!

Many congratulations to you! Also love his name! Have you tried sitting on a rubber ring? Really helps with the stitches, you can hire one from the NCT or try a swimming ring. I know the feeling having had 2 ventouse deliveries myself, take care.
