Morning all.

Know how you love a live thread. Pretty chilled out.

It didn't happen this way with my first. They were busy preparing for him to come in his sack.

Just having a cup of tea and a bit of porridge and waiting to see what happens next

Sorry for going awol ladies and gents. Ds2, baby 's' was born at 5.43pm. midwife arrived just as he was crowning! I only rang her at 4.30 because DH suggested I should. I told her I didn't need her immediately but thought I'd touch base because the snow was so hard

Thank you all for your well wishes.

Curry wasn't as satisfying as hoped but I've had a shower, cup of tea and a bacon sandwich. Currently sat watching criminal minds and snuggling newborn.

Feels very surreal this evening.

Midwife said her main concern was that my pants were stopping me from opening my legs and that I was facing towards the toilet seat. Poor kid would have got a headache. They cut my pants off Confused
