Having said at 10.30pm nothing was happening, baby Faith arrived 00.50am 2 weeks early, weighing 5lb3oz. Both fine, being kept in to keep an eye on her blood sugars.

CallingAllEngels · 23/05/2014 13:40

Fantastic baking!!!!!!

EnglishGirlsReturned · 23/05/2014 13:43

Ahhhhh Congratulation Baking! And Faith is a beautiful name!! Grin. What a speedy entrance into the world! Glad to hear you're both doing well, hope you're back home soon.

Penguin13 · 23/05/2014 13:46

Congratulations baking!! What a beautiful name for your baby girl. Hope you're both doing well.

Congratulations baking glad your both well!

mrsg glad ur getting seen, hope you feel better soon and that it's nothing to worry about

Itscurtainsforyou · 23/05/2014 14:03

Thanks for the welcome all. I've been in touch with the bereavement midwife I saw last time, she's set up consultant appointments for me and an early scan request.

I then stupidly carried two heavy bags home from the supermarket and am knackered and worried that I've done myself/baby some damage. Very much hoping not.

Well done baking and welcome Faith, what a beautiful name. How funny that you thought nothing was happening two hours before she was born though! Hope my labour goes like that. Hope that her blood sugars stabilise and they let you go home soon.

I've just been having cuddles with a 9 day old baby in the hope that it spurs Pingu to come out. And planning a nice hot curry tonight. It is still 4 days until my due date but I'm ready now!

Enjoy your mat leave pg, I bet you are ready for it.

Congratulations baking Grin
Welcome to the world Faith! Hope you get to go home soon x

OneLittleToddleTerror · 23/05/2014 14:20

Wow, I haven't been on for a day, and now we have another thread baby. Congratulations baking.

Congratulations baking and welcome to the world Faith

Seasides · 23/05/2014 14:37

Wonderful news baking, so glad you're both safe. Love the name too. Hope the birth was as straightforward as it was quick! And that you're let out with stable blood sugar soon.

curtains, I carry shopping bags regularly, did last night. Hadn't even occurred to me it might not be a good idea-I think healthy beans are stickier than that. Does anyone else know if it's not a good idea?

Hope you get sorted soon mrsG, glad the midwife is on your case.

pgchimp · 23/05/2014 14:39

Many many congratulations baking. Welcome to the world Faith!

How exciting (although a little terrifying for the person who was after you on the stats list - I am happy for those above me to go first!).

curtains, well done on organising appointments, but a little minnow slap for worrying about carrying bags.

ChristineDaae · 23/05/2014 15:02

Congratulations tins! Hope everyob Ed here is doing well and looking forward to the grads group growing in the next few weeks with all these thread babies due!!

IhavetowaitHOWlong · 23/05/2014 15:12

Congratulations baking, that's fantastic news! Grin

Hope you get to take your precious little bundle home soon

Gaaaa!
Sorry to spoil the merry mood of the moment with a selfish post.
Just had ante-natal clinic ring to book me on for clinic and my 12 scan, having just received the MWs notes from yesterday.
The woman who rang told me to cut out the cup of tea I have in the morning. She gave me no time to point out that its the one thing I can stomach before my HG meds (which I obviously need to swallow with something) and that my GP had actually advised me to drink whatever didn't make me feel ill. He was unconcerned that this was tea, and I did check.
Feel like I have done something awful now. Not fair, had worked so hard to see good sides and was feeling quite positive this morning.
Grrr.

GardenWorm · 23/05/2014 15:29

Awe so many congratulations Baking, beautiful poignant name. Enjoy your long awaited new born cuddles, hope you are home soon with your little girl. (And don't forget to PM me if you want to join us on Facebook) xxx

amicablemoomin · 23/05/2014 15:29

Congratulations baking what a beautiful name! Hope you are both home soon!

amicablemoomin · 23/05/2014 15:31

Cuppa can you have decaff?

Emki · 23/05/2014 15:41

Congratulations baking well done! How funny she came on my due date - will always remember her birthday xxxx

Thanks penguin I wonder if you will beat me too xxx

Cakebaker35 · 23/05/2014 16:06

cuppa I can't believe you were told to cut out one cup of tea! craziness! I've been told it's fine to have 2 cups a day so that's what I'm sticking with. Could try decaf but it doesn't taste the same to me, I'm sad enough to have conducted blind tastings!! Don't beat yourself up x

Gwlondon · 23/05/2014 16:28

Congratulations bakingtins! Great news.

HopefulHamster · 23/05/2014 17:22

Cuppa - a cup of tea is fine, the amount of caffeine they advise restricting yourself to is much higher than this. I try to keep to one or two a day but I think cutting it all out altogether is pretty unnecessary. If it was they'd tell us not to eat chocolate either.
