Just thought I'd better start a new thread for those of you who would like to see updates before the old one is totally full.

All still good here! I've been a bit low on iron but the tablets REALLY don't agree with me. So I've started just taking one in the morning with orange juice, and having a spoonful of Floridix in the afternoon and making an effort to eat spinach and red meat.
I've been feeling baby OMG moving around a lot more now he's getting bigger and stronger, which is lovely although slightly alarming at times!

We've probably got a maximum of 7 weeks to go now as I understand the drs are not keen for older mums to go much over 39 weeks. Eeeek.
Will keep you all posted.

He is here! Arrived about 4 hours ago, weighing just over 7lb.
I didn’t have to have an emergency caesarean in the end, but needed a little bit of help.
DH and I are totally besotted.

He’s absolutely glorious. Massive congratulations ❤️❤️

How is the new beautiful arrival settling in? He is adorable.

Omgwhatthehell · 01/08/2022 03:27

Hi everyone. I’m just doing a night feed and thought I’d update you all.
Baby OMG is doing great! Obviously he is totally adorable which helps.
We didn’t get home until early Friday evening as they had to keep an eye on me in the hospital for a bit. I’ve got stitches which are rather sore and I’m quit tired but very happy.

DH has been absolutely amazing at home. He’s doing everything so that I can concentrate on trying to recover from birth and hopefully establish breast feeding, which seems to be going ok so far.
