Hi all,

I got taken into hospital a week ago yesterday for induction but the waters had got wayyyyyy too much, baby was breech and very big according to scan and my SPD was so bad I could hardly walk at all. Coupled with the irregular heartbeat we decided it was best all round for a section. Had an extensive chat with a midwife and consultant and they said they needed to keep me in until Tuesday when I'd be having my section as if my waters went at home the cord would probably prolapse.

Ended up getting along really well with all the midwives so actually had a lovely stay in hospital!

Tuesday, DH came in at 8am, I was already up and ready. Our beautiful baby girl was born by c section, her heart became regular as soon as she screamed and she weighed 9lb 5oz (thank God she didn't go to term )

Breastfeeding is going well besides her being a hungry horrace. DS (21 months) loves her to bits.

So consider this my birth announcement guys, welcome to the world Faith Juliet.

Thanks all,

She's already pretty much sleeping through and she's a content little thing, enjoying being a mummy all over again
