I didn't manage to post much in the other group either but will post here to say hello in case anyone new drops in!
Our little pink Squish - Miss Isabella - was due October 10th, but arrived earthside early on October 2nd at 12.30am.
We are very much in love and thoroughly enjoying getting to know each other.

Hi! my beautiful little boobie monster was due on the 7th of October, but I was given an early caesarian due to my blood pressure, and he arrived at 9:41am on the 4th of October
