Born this very morning at 02:25 by caesarian section.

Weighing in at 10lbs 1oz, he arrived chomping away and has been feeding his face ever since.

I really hope all is well - I know BE was hoping for a home birth.

MrsJohnCusack · 09/08/2008 13:09

(making mental note not to look at any more pics of newborns - too broody-making)

He is beautiful.

BE was transferred to hospital at (I think) around 8pm last night. The baby wasn't engaged and wasn't looking likely to engage. No amount of pushing would have got him out so unfortunately a CS was decided upon. BE was awake - they had time to top up her epidural so no GA.

No name yet

DH (that's Dear Husband not my DH) is hopefully fast asleep now after a long 24 hours.

BE is keen to get out of hospital asap and I'm sure she'll be posting as soon as she's home

He is utterly gorgeous isn't he? I was broody anyway but now...

They make gorgeous babies - their dd is a looker too

SpookyMadMummy · 09/08/2008 13:24

Aww! Congrats BE and DH!!! He's gorgeous!!!!

lol at Kiskidee's 'it sounds like it was a successful HB'. I didn't realise that you could get c-sections done at home now .
