GGG has given birth to a baby boy - a caesar during a storm - 3.720KG All is well.

Oh dear - it didn't all go to plan then?! Sound nerve-wracking and looooonnng.

Thankfully all turned out ok. 9 days in hosp is a long time though.

How are rest of family doing? Looking after you well I hope.

I am off to Dublin this afternoon for Xmas - won't be back on line much till early Jan. Will be thinking of you - I hope you have a wonderful Christmas. I know in lots of ways it will be very hard and bittersweet.

also that everything worked out in the end and you have little Edouard with you

Well done you for getting thru it all. and CONGRATS on new squidgey lo.
Argh, beingnagged, gtg.

oh congratulations and yikes what a marathon. i hope it was all very luxurious in the hospital for you.

Ouch at birth drama but sounds like a good obs and I am delighted that Edouard has arrived in time for Christmas cuddling, enjoy
Oh and that is a GREAT name btw.

Oh ggg OUCH for the spinal block and the 9 days in but I am PMSL at "Dh left for quickie entrecote" - sooo French - and "two ipod recharges" - it's a thoroughly modern birth!

In the future women won't compare labour stories based on "I was pushing for 11 hours" - it'll be "I got through a whole iPod - 4 gig!"

Hope your solemn little man is well today!

Fantastic new ggg, even though I am a little late in reading this .

Congratulations to you all!

So glad you have your solemn blond baby, GGG. Very relieved the consultant was on the ball wrt your wishes re a section too.
