Congratulations MrsJC!

I think you were worried about having someone to look after your dd during the birth a while back - how did that work out?

CantSlimWontSlim · 10/03/2007 08:57

Oh congratulations MrsJC. It is a nice cardigan .

blardy hell - what a whopper - obviously put that extra time inside to good use!

Well done you on all counts -esp. long stretch to dilate. Was waiting to hear your news and was so pleased when I did.

Best wishes to you all.

Oh big congrats - I have been lurking following your progress. Henry is just gorgeous - makes me want a little boy even more now

bless!

PinkTulips · 10/03/2007 10:59

well done!

what a little whopper, very handsome though... they always look more 'finished' when they're big don't they?

CONGRATULATIONS!

Oh well done Mrs JC. Henry is gorgeous! Hope you are surviving

chonky · 10/03/2007 11:30

Well done you! He's gorgeous (can definitely see a family resemblance already)

Congratulations on a really lovely cardigan.

Oh aye.. and a very very cute wee boy. Your DD is a smasher too !

Oh fantastic news MrsJC!! Boy did he keep you waiting, and what a birth story! Well done you. What a wee treasure he looks; utterly adorable. He is soo cute, as is your dd!

But ...

I think that nice cardigan is going to be right up there with nice ham and UCM is that you? in the future, 20p

(And it is a very nice cardigan )

Lovely boy and lovely big sis too, well done Mrs JC!

Marina · 10/03/2007 21:12

Any keen knitter will confirm that
a/ there are plenty of truly nasty cardigans out there
b/ Henry's is every bit as nice as he deserves!
Lovely pics and what a story MrsJC, so glad you are all OK. I bet you are feeling cooler now too XXX

WAHAY!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS MRSJC!!!!!!

I am sitting huddled at a netkiosk at Sydney airport. Am on my way home but just couldn't wait any longer to find out if you had had the baby and as luck would have it I had $2 left in my purse

Just love the name Henry - am MOST impressed at you giving birth to such a whopper (I had whoppers too but couldn't od it naturally I am afraid) ... Well done love
