Faith was born on Wednesday 19th January at 13.02 and weighed in at 9.7. She has blonde hair and slate grey eyes and looks 3 months old! I have been blessed with a good natured angel but feel sure I'll be needing a heart transplant soon as mine doesn't seem big enough for the joy that keeps swelling up when I look at her.

Those of you who have suffered in pregnancy, Lord knows I did, the afterpains of childbirth are nothing at all in comparison, I've had a C section and I feel the best I've felt in 5 months!

Having a C section is THE most terrifying thing I have ever experienced in my life but it will always be remembered for the beautiful baby I was handed afterwards. Norah Jones was playing in the background and I feel sure that every time I hear the song I will cry, even when she's 20!

Can't wait to have another...

Congratulations hunny!
You knew it would all be worth it in the end! and 9.7!!! Well! No wonder you were measuring at over forty odd weeks!

Artyjoe, what a beautiful post (except has made me all emotional sob - but in a good way). Congratulations and hello little Faith. xx
