Awww, that was beautiful to read Fiona. Were you surprised that he was so big?

[*Efjay*]

Yeah but not really. More surprised that he was that big but really didn't "feel" so much bigger then the others. Isla was 8lb 4oz So it was a bit of a jump from her (being my 2nd biggest) to Iain.

too look at, its his hands & feet that are massive to me, the rest is just a new baby KWIM LOL

Thanks for sharing your story Fiona, you did a wonderful job. Your little man was such a great size! He looks absolutely beautiful, congratulations

[Trillian]

Yep, he sure does have big hands. You know, looking at the pic you had in your ticker before you had him, I wouldn't have picked that he was that big. IKWYM though when you said that his body felt the same as his head - Alister was like that and I had to push him the entire way out, but the others all just slid out and they weren't exactly small babies either.

Thanks for sharing Fiona, you know you could have described my labour with Abbey about the pushing. I had no real overwhelming push urge there at all. I was fine to converse between contractions, watching the birth dvd you wouldn't even know I was so close.

A huge congratulations to you hun. Sounds like you did an awesome job. Can't wait to meet your new little man.

Wonderful birth story Fiona, wishing you and Iain all the best

I didn't get the urge to push with my first, it is such a weird feeling but I thought that her birth was more peaceful than DD2

well done FJ! Now I have to haul butt off the couch and go find a tissue *sniff*
