Sorry not to have been on here for a while or posted sooner...lots of admiration to those who seem to effortlessly manage 3 kids, childbirth, house...

At 10 days post due date on Wed 22, I was finally innduced, but at the point they ruptured my membranes they felt a prolapsed cord, so what should have been a calm labour turned into a scene from casulty and our liitle baby was born 7 mins later by emergency c- section.

On coming round from the general I was pleased to see that we had got ourselves a gorgeous little girl, weighing in at 9lbs, who we have named Honor Marie.

Big brother is quietly contemplating new arrival as we speak but no finger prodding so far.

We are all doing well, although the pain killers run out today!!!
