That's it really. Had a baby girl yesterday at 3.08pm, weighing 7lb 4oz, probably going to be called Ellie! Sure she'll be here to update you when she's out of hospital!

Thanks Everyone :) Got home today, thank God!! Went in on WEdnesday morning for an elective CS... got all psyched up and ready to go and ended up having to sit and wait 6 hours as there were 3 emergencies brought in so we were put to the back of the queue - I don;t know if that was worse because it gave me all morning to worry or better because we were so desperate to get in there! It started off as a bit of a nightmare because the anaesthetist couldn't do the spinal because I was shaking like a leaf plus I'm so ticklish I kept moving Blush (Not the thing to do when someone is trying to inject your spine!!!) Once it was done though it went really quickly and she was worth it all :)
I was really surprised that she was 7lb 4... dd1 was 7lbs and ds was 6lb 7 and this one felt even smaller!! She has been good as gold though and has hardly cried at all... I woke up at 3am the first night when all the other babies were screaming and she was just lying looking around with her beady eyes bless her!
DD1 and DS have been an absolute nightmare at the hospital which is another good reason for being home - they've been playing up and a bit all over the place emotionally to say the least, poor little monkeys.

I'm off now to find a reasonable pic to post in profiles... could be a while as our babies are not the prettiest things to say the least!! Grin Grin
