Was your dh there with you? Did he "catch her" or did you?

Great to hear all about how it went. Thanks so much for posting this.

congrats again! that's wonderful that the breastfeeding is going so well too. there is so much bf knowledge on this forum, you don't have to look far, when/if you have bf questions, lotsa support on bellybelly.

Hang on hang on hang on.

Where was Leah born? Who caught the baby in the carpark and how did that happen? Did DH see Leah born?

Ok - I don't expect Ali to answer my ??? - if anyone can enlighten my addled brain that will be fine.

ALI - she is beeeeyuuuuutiful, such a little doll.

Leah was born in the birthing room, My Student Mid caught the carpark baby when she was on her way to take her kids from daycare to the babysitter, DH was the one that stayed with me the whole time.

The senior mid caught her, and I cut the cord after the placenta arrived.
