at last!

we went into hospital at about 11pm on Wednesday night (after finding the neighbours were in after all), and baby was born at 2.15. Birth very much the same as I had feared really (stirrups etc), but the midwives were so much nicer than last time that it didn't matter really.

Not sure on the name - Finlay probably (but the Spanish have been having abit of trouble with that which is what's put me off). But whoever he is, so far he's proved himself to be a watcher rather than a screamer which is a relief. ds and dd are entranced by him and, well, we're doing OK really.

OH

She had already posted.

Marina · 02/09/2006 20:05

Am having a quick smile at the thought of the Spanish trying to pronounce Finlay - we have a lot of Iberians where I work and can hear the vowel mangling now
Terrific news that he is finally here SP, sure you can't squeeze in Fabius as a middle name?
Congratulations to you all
