That's it really.

6lb15oz of adorable girly loveliness - on her due date, at 9.50pm.

Super quick, mega brill delivery, except now I'm wide awake and DP has had to go home.

Talk to me, about anything!

Wow! Congratulations, how lovely!

Is she right there next to you? Does she smell all warm and new and lovely? Any hair? Any name? Grin

Congratulations!! Grin

You really have just had a baby. You must be feeling wired...I remember the feeling well.

I know it's hard, but try and get some sleep if you can you're going to need it

Oh, and congratulations again! Grin

NickyNackyNooNoo · 23/04/2012 01:23

Wow - congratulations!
When I had my DS I kept the light on for about a week at night as I thought he might disappear in the night! I couldn't quite believe I "made that", well not just me but ykwim Grin

ThatVikRinA22 · 23/04/2012 01:25

Mythical · 23/04/2012 01:25

Yes, I confess, I am also very very jealous!!! :o

maytheoddsbeeverinyourfavour · 23/04/2012 01:26

Welcome to the world baby nancy, I hope your life is long and happy and filled with joy Smile

wipes away a sentimental tear at the miracle of new life

MumbleMumm · 23/04/2012 01:26

Oooooo fabulous! I remember the feeling - you are a Mum!! Now gaze at that baby as much as you like, she's 100% yours to love :-)
Don't be afraid to ring that buzzer if you need some support tonight, and seriously - try to sleep!!

Murtette · 23/04/2012 01:27

Congratulations! Love the name - that was my choice for DD but DP vetoed it. So annoying of him - how could anyone not want to name their DD after Nancy, Captain of the Amazon pirates?
V envious of you for giving birth on your due date. And having a quick labour. I am 37+3 with DC2, currently up with restless legs and just want to meet my baby.
Enjoy your little girl!

ZeroFucksGiven · 23/04/2012 01:28

yes I agree, ring if you need anything and do try to sleep, I know you probably cant because youre so pumped up Smile

Also cuddle her as much as you want, dont let anybody tell you youre making a rod for your own back!

maras2 · 23/04/2012 01:31

Welling up hear Jambalaya.God bless you baby Nancy. Mxxxxx.
