I am very pleased and proud to announce the arrival of my little girl Natasha Claire last night!

After a long prelabour with contractions all over the place, Natasha was born in the hastily filled birth pool after a 3 hour labour!

We did it, VBAC and homebirth!

I cannot thank the fantastic support team I had, knowledgeable and trusting midwives, a DH who backed me all the way and bore the brunt of my super quick labour and a dear friend who held my hand and now passes her name on to my DD.

And to the other person up there who must have been looking out for me - (The midwife and friend arrived just in time!) I knew you were with me.

Woo Hoo!
