on saturday 5.30am baby bubbly arrived safely into this world

we had a little boy, we and everyone we know thought we would have a girl so a bit of a shock but still over the moon, i have totally fallen head over heels in love with him

i was due june 8th, but had him saturday 10th, after being in labour for about 3 hours, although had pains at about midnight.

decided at 4.40 to go to hospital, gave birth with just gas and air at 5.30, so phew, just made it

breastfeeding going well, ds over the moon as he wanted a baby brother and not a sister!!

thinking of calling him ruben not sure yet

Ahhh, congrats Bubbly Smile. Is Ruben the result of a sucessful IUI attempt, I seem to remember your name on an online diary ? What a ray of hope to all those undergoing fertility treatment atm.

My cousin is a Ruben, but spelt Reuben - I think it's a lovely name

thank you everyone for your lovely messages...

hoxtonchick, yes i remember you very well cos you helped me a lot when i was all over the place when i thought i had messed up on the iui injections! i had posted in the health board

rickman, i did mean to come back on that thread and say that im definitly in labour, but pains got a tad bad :o
thanks for thinking of me though

nomdeplume, yes its a successful iui attempt baby, which reminds me after this posting perhaps i should put a link to finish off the diary

we still havent named him, better get a move on or poor baby will be the 'it' baby
