Luke Andrew arrived safely by c-section at 11.51am fri 29th June. He weighed 9lb 1 and 3/4oz, 52cm long and let the entire theatre staff know he was not impressed to be out by keeping up a steady cry from the min he appeared until we got through to recovery.

We came home yesterday at 4.30pm and are doing well despite feeling sore etc. Feeding nicely and very fast compared with how his big sister. Dd is just delighted with him and is giving him lots of kisses and cuddles, great at bringing a whole host of bears when he cries.

Will post a bit more at a later point when I've got the energy. Thanks to everyone who posted on the arnica thing - forgot about the thread as ended taking hours on the thurs to get booked in and home again but think will send dh out for some and start taking in next 24hrs - can only help.
