Oi! Where is OliviaMumsnet's birth announcement?

Or her live labour thread, for that matter? You sneaked the announcement in as a throw-away line at the end of the Parenting News email, and that's just not good enough. Shurely she deserves better than that? So,

Many congratulations on your new baby boy OliviaMumsnet! Looking forward to hearing all about him! Does he have a name yet?

Sheesh - give the poor woman a moment - she only had the baby yesterday!

We're sure she'll post about it in due course - from what we've heard, it'll make an EXCELLENT birth story.

(no name yet, as far as we know)

Saltire · 11/11/2010 22:29

Maybe she's calling him Dave Grin.

QuintessentialShadows · 11/11/2010 22:30

Yes, or Quint.

BecauseImWorthIt · 11/11/2010 22:31

Well she was on Facebook talking about it .....

Just saying.

Grin
Saltire · 11/11/2010 22:31

Dave the Quint is a good name actually

HelenMumsnet · 11/11/2010 22:32

Not sure that one was top of her list, Saltire!

QuintessentialShadows · 11/11/2010 22:33

Saltire, it would either have to be Dave De'Quint or just Dave Quint.

QuintessentialShadows · 11/11/2010 22:33

Quint Dave is also good.

Saltire · 11/11/2010 22:33

No, the "the" is essential, IMO anyway Wink

QuintessentialShadows · 11/11/2010 22:34

But, that sounds a little too much like Queen Dave.

Not good.

Poledra · 11/11/2010 22:35

Well, y'know, maybe one of you lot could have made a birth announcement for her maybe? Grin

And live labour threads are, y'know, as it happens. Clue's in the name.

Tch. Excuses, excuses

Don't think she had much time for a live labour thread, Poledra, tbh. Twas all rather speedy.

And no, the announcement is all hers to make - really. She did all the work, innit?...

QuintessentialShadows · 11/11/2010 22:40

Helen, do suggest Quint Dave for her, will you? theres a dear.....

Saltire · 11/11/2010 22:42

no helen, "Dave the Quint" is a far better option

HelenMumsnet · 11/11/2010 22:42

Actually, perhaps we should have an MN Olivia's-baby-name sweepstake?

Poledra · 11/11/2010 22:49

Oooh, good idea!

I'll have Belgarath.

QuintessentialShadows · 11/11/2010 22:55

Or Poledron. Wink

StayingDavidTennantsGirl · 11/11/2010 23:57

Congratulations to Olivia and the new baby!

sharbie · 12/11/2010 00:16

Congratulations to them both Smile

Tee2072 · 12/11/2010 06:54

Congratulations Olivia!

KurriKurri · 13/11/2010 21:22

Congratulations Olivia and welcome little one. (Kurri is a good name for a baby)

OliviaMumsnet · 14/11/2010 18:33

Hello, sorry that's he's not called Dave.
here's the announcement
Grin

Saltire · 16/11/2010 10:03

OOh, good Borders surname that you've chosen, love that name, it's my family name Grin
