And welcome to the world, Carys.

Have fun getting to know each other, FlameFamily. Congratulations, again!

Yay! Congratulations

Oh and ShowOfHands - why are you looking for newborns and not meeting me for coffee????

Wonderful news Flame and MrFlame - huge congratulations and a warm welcome to Carys. And 9lb9oz without stitches - just thinking about it makes my eyes water!

I'm glad everything went well in the end, even though the third stage sounds to have been no fun at all.

Fabulous news- congratulations Flame and family

Well done and congratulations Flame

She has a beautiful name.

How disappointed is Flameboy going to be??

The woman of the hour!

Hi, Flame, how are you doing, hen (as they say here in Scotland, seemed appropriate, you new MotherSparrow )?

yeah, and me ???

flame, DD3 came out superman style too

Because I assume that at 3 weeks postpartum you'll be doing what I was doing at 3 weeks postpartum ie not getting out of my pyjamas, wondering what the sticky stuff in my hair is and rocking gently in the corner. Everybody does that. Right? Right?

If coffee's on the menu and cooing over babies to be had I'll be there with bells on. Well, patchwork, but you know, there at least.

Yup, we will be meeting. I have spoken.

Dude will be fine - he has a Jessie waiting for him.

Congratulations Flame

Beautiful name.
