Thanks for posting this nic. I didn't know you were in labour already when they took you in. Funny little DS - he was keen to meet you too. Glad for you all the CS went ok.

Thanks for sharing your story

thanks for sharing hun - it's nice to read about other long termers fearing they won't be able to bond with their baby when it arrives!!

sounds like, planned c/s or not, your little man was picking that day as his birthday!

Thanks for sharing Nic, BG is right, its comforting to share the fears of other long termers, and know that no matter what happens or how it happens, that when it happens, things are usually ok.
You did a wonderful job through labour and the outcome is your gorgeous boy.

My how fast time really has flown!!

Oh, such a gorgeous birth story Nic ... i feel so wrapt to be honoured to have read it ... Thank you so much for sharing with us all here

I too felt concerned after a long TTC how would i feel about this baby ... but the moment i laid eyes on her my very first thought was 'Am i dreaming' cause it just felt like i was floating on a cloud ... Because of THAT thought we named her Cendrine as the name Cendrine sounded like 'Send me a dream'

Nic, i wish you a wonderful journey ahead ... it's just so magical & tingly the feeling ... and one of the wonders of that we get to have that feeling for such a long, long time
