Hey girls.... check out the birth announcement

[Jennifer13]

Just a quick note from me saying I'm so happy right now! Thank you Christy for your amazing support, from the bottom of my heart.

Perfect, textbook labour and birth in water and I caught her myself! Small labial tear, but otherwise nothing to report.

Now just soaking her up and going to bed.

Woo hoo! Hannah is here! Jen, I am so happy that you were able to welcome Hannah in to the world in your own home. A massive congratulations.

I was thinking of you during the day, and just now, when I couldn't sleep, I was hoping there would be news from you.
I look forward to hearing more about Hannah's arrival. And, wow, you caught her yourself. Beautiful. Was your DD there?

(Now I definitely won't get back to sleep!).

Welcome Hannah. Congratulations Jen.

Oooh, I'm getting excited anticipation about my own birth - but I still have a few weeks. So I am going to be excited for Bella and HotI. Bella, I see that you are 40 weeks today. I love the sound of one of those pre-labour herbal baths. What herbs do you use for that?
HotI, I hope you are well.
Hi Loulabelle, you and I are getting close! What is your EDD?

Hi to everyone else - it is so lovely to read about Jen's home waterbirth isn't it? Brings back nice memories for us.

Congrats Jen! So happy your little girl was born at home into your arms.

[HotI]

I had things starting for about 12 hours, but everything settled down again. Was exciting and scary. Started worrying if i am ready and if i can do this. Have a midwife appt this morning so hopefully will get back to excited.

[BellyBelly]

Thanks for the welcome everyone Very exciting to get a text from Jen this morning, funny one starts their journey, one walks.... And a couple more on the way too, excited for you ladies! I'm in no rush though, so over the first trimester too.

I'm very tired from the move over this last hot weekend and finding it really hard to get motivated to unpack, but I am getting there!
