Libb's feeling quite liberated . . .

Just a quick note to say that I am now home with one brand new baby and a rather distinctive walk!

Thanks to those who helped me to decide whether to call the Rosie on Thursday evening/Friday morning - as well I did as he arrived at 4:02am and weighed in at 7lb 11oz - rather like Spot's young lady. I also share Spot's battle scar of a third degree tear, a small price to pay for a short labour. Spots, obviously you have copied me as I came first (just kidding!)

We haven't decided on a name yet but Reuben might be a possibility . . .

I will now doubt be asking lots of silly questions about breast feeding and having neurotic episodes for years to come!

Take care xxxxx

Oh, go for Reuben. Lovely name. I was going to call dd2 that if she'd been a boy!

Well done you, and glad it all went so quickly.
