Hi gals, notice I've been away for awhile? that's because I went into labour at about 5PM on Friday (18th) the contractions came on strong & fast & Jethro was born at 4:08AM on the 19th May, weighing a massive 3.748KG (for little size 6 me) unfortunately he was a ventouse delivery because he couldn't come down, but he's absolutely fine & I'm recovering well!

Congratulations Snowi,

Welcome to Jethro, I'm so glad to hear you sounding so positively overjoyed!

Did you need an episiotemy for the Ventouse? Even if you didn't I would suggest Arnica, you can get pillules of 30c out of Boots, etc and Arnica will help enormously with the bruising/tenderness of your nether regions.

Hope you're enjoying your babymoon!
