Had a text this morning saying her waters had broken.

Had another one a minute or three ago to say contractions ten minutes apart.

And another just now to say she's "having a lovely time. Can feel this bubba moving down and feel amazing. Sun is shining and everything."

Will keep you posted!

Fab story - read it at the office, and had to keep back the tears, and just read MarsLady's bit, which started me off all over again. Congratulations.

Oh my goodness.
I'm sat here with tears streaming down my face and keep saying 'ohhhhhh' to myself.
Thank you all so, so soooooo much for your lovely messages.

But an especially huge thanks to Mars.
You were amazing, just a wonderful presence to have in the room with me, I'm so pleased you were there and my DD is a lucky girl to have had someone like you at her birth.

I'll post the link to the pics for your site soon Mars. The one of you and her is one for me and my family to treasure for a long while.

And the offer to stay and make lemon drizzle cake was just lovely and won't be forgotten.

As soon as we get a name decided and a date for the baptism we'll have an invite in the post to you and yours.

Thanks again everyone xx

Are we going to have to wait weeks again like we did with dd2 for a name Thomcat?

Can we help you decide?

Blossomhill · 25/09/2007 18:19

Aww Thomcat. Your birth story has made me go all goose bumpy!
I am over the moon for you and have been checking facebook every few hours to see if there was any news.
Congratulations to you and your lovely family. Take care babes and can't wait to see a picture of the new addition. xxxxxx
