For delivering our little boy after watching you tube- they'll print anything these days!

I cannot believe how much milage this story has got! Dh and I find it quite a novelty actually. They did have on on the local news and made dh play with hs rubiks cube and guitar, it was so cheesy!

Anyhow ninedragons, I would love the clipping, we are making a collection of them for Gabriel. But I dont have Cat facility yet (been a bit slow at getting it). Could you keep it for now while i get one sorted and i will get back to you.

thanx

I like the BBC quote that it was all "down to his Royal Navy training"

Can just see the RN recruitment adverts!

Congratulations.

Ha, I've just seen you're in the New York Times

Wow you are properly international superstars now!

Congratulations to you and the rest of your stonkingly beautiful family.

Now - honestly not trying to piss on your parade - but I did catch most of the interview on JV. The BBC seemed to be trying to push it as "not enough midwives".
As little Gabriel managed to make it out before the paramedics arrived (who were called by the MW afaik?) surely even if there were midwives available he would still have been born before they got there!
Is more an issue for the Beebs angle on it rather then a reflection on you though.

Now enjoy your little man before the Hello photographers arrive with a million pound cheque for you!

DD2 was born in the car and I am always when people say "DH delivered her" - no, DH caught her, I was doing the delivering thank you very much!

Congrats Pinkdolly! Your family look wonderful!
