April 2019 part 3!

Hi all, thought I'd make us another :)

@sofasandcoffeetables congratulations!! I bet you’re knackered! It’s worth it though!

@tootyfrooty35 good luck today! Hopefully it won’t be long now!

Had my beautiful baby son yesterday at 7.48pm. It was an intense labour ending in a slightly scary shoulder dystocia but we're all fine. Our MWs were amazing and the shoulders was sorted out so quickly. He's a big boy, 11lb10, and feeding like an absolute champ.... His new happy place is definitely my boobs!
Who is still waiting?

@Tootyfrooty35 belated congratulations! He was a big guy, we’ll done you! How are you getting on?

@sofasandcoffeetables @Tootyfrooty35 congratulations to you both! Hope you are all well ❤️

Thank you @ChocolateChipMuffin2016 and @buttons28. His birth was pretty intense at moments and he was technically a shoulder dystocia but it was resolved in else than a minute and I was lucky with a second degree tear that only needed stitches because it was bleeding a bit. I feel pretty good considering, I'd actually say my trapped wind and haemorrhoids post partum gave me the worst pain, night two was horrendous

All great here though, well, in the grand scheme of going from two under fives to three under fives 😂 his big sister, 4,and brother ,2, are totally smitten with him. He's taken to the boob like a champ, my milk is in and there's plenty for him... Interesting to see what he weighs tomorrow at 5 day check. He likes to sleep alllllll day and feed all night bar the odd few hours around midnight then again around 4-6am so that's an adjustment.

He's slotted right in ❤️
