    Wow - Feathertop! That is amazing!

    We only decided on Angus Blake the morning before I went into labour. I had been thinking about Angus for quite a while, but we had settled on Blake, then I mentioned in passing to my Dh about Angus and he loved it, so it wasn't until about 5 hours after he was born that we decided between Angus Blake and Blake Angus!

    I can now truly understand how awesome birth can be, when there is absolutely no interference and just what a high and sense of achievement it can be!
    Relle, I am so so glad for you.

    A huge congratulations sweetheart. A beautiful birth story. I am in tears, LOL! xx

    You go girl!

    Hey beautiful birthing babe! You are such an inspiration. I have repeated your story to a couple of my clients as I find it so empowering and a true testament of how a natural birth can make a woman ROAR with how wonderful the experience can be. Well done and congratulations. He is such a spunk!

    Yael - huni, thankyou so much for your time with the massages too babe. Yep, definately order a 90 min labour, though you have a lot further than me to go, maybe it should be a 2hours labour hun to give you time to get there! lol

    I am really looking forward to introducing him to you!
