Hi all, I've been MIA for a day or two as my wee boy was born yesterday a week early YAY, and just came home at lunch time today.

Nathan (not sure of his middle name yet) was born at 6.10am on the 20.08.2009 weighing 7 pounds 9 ozs, 52cm in length.
I woke to pains at 1.30am and they were every five minutes lasting 25 sec, so I tried to go back to sleep but by 2.30 I was in now doubt it was the real thing. I got up to have a wee and was quite concerned as I was bleeding bright red blood, and the contractions were about 2 to 3 minutes apart and lasting about a minute. I rang my MW and she met us at the hospital. I was 7cm dilated and had a fairly good birth. I just used gas and had a slight tear that didn't need stitches and my broken tailbone didn't become an issue so YAY and baby turned so he wasn't posterier anymore.

He is just so scrummy I could eat him!!.

Takecare, Missy
