well this a hard one..

Felix was born at 41+ weeks(13 days over) was induced, and they had to pump the dial up on the hormones to get me labouring..everything went well with him coming out apart from that.

He was overcooked, shriveled, VERY long fingernails, dry skin etc..and once out he looked calmly around at everyone.

He breastfed like a champion and appart from poor attachment we had a good expereince, as he was so"ethusiastic"

Felix now, even though he is adventurous, like to be cautious, he is physially capable of walking (has been for 2 months nearly) but still likes to hold a finger for reassurance. He likes to be close to me, and is very upset if he wakes during the night and I am not there.

So with knowledge of his personality now, I believe he just wanted to stay inside for comfort, he probably would have come out but not till the last possible moment..he was engaged for 7 weeks..I think he likes to practice for along time before he launches into action so he gets it just right...
