Thank you so much everyone!

I really feel so proud of myself, and I'm not ashamed to tell anyone that ! Although the birth didn't exactly go to plan, I feel that it could have diverged from my plan even more had I not persisted and been so well supported. It was truly the most amazing experience of my life, I can't wait to do it again .

I have to say that without all the knowledge I have gained here on BB I think it might have been a different story. Although I didn't have my own 'professional' birth support I tried to educate Andy as much as I could, and I drew on all the little tips I have seen on here. I think it made a big difference to how I laboured.

Yes nappy girls, you will definitely get to meet him soon! I just need to make sure I've got someone around to drive me to the next meet up! (Can't drive for at least another 7 weeks ).

Thank you again for all your lovely, supportive comments
