It was wonderful having him at a crazy hour so we could just enjoy those first 12 hours by ourselves.
So true! My little one was born 8pm and we rang our folks about an hour later (mine first), but we knew no-one could come in until later the next day. My Mum visited the next morning.

I waited until the next morning to call anyone else. I needed to recover and enjoy bub.

My DH tried to send a mass sms but when he added all the names the phone said too many recipients and wouldn't send. So check how many recipients your phone can send to in one go!
