M5Clive Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 (edited) Amelia Charlotte entered our wondeful world this afternoon at exactly 15.26, at Ipswich Hospital, Suffolk. (Note she has inherited her fathers snappy dress style and colour co-ordination already!) Due to a footling breech position, the delivery team deemed it unsafe for a natural delivery and therefore insisted on a C-Section. To my astonishment, I remained upright, breathing and lukewarm throughout the procedure and didn't end-up keeling-over! This photo above was taken about 5 minutes after the birth, even though I look like I have just baked 200 doughnuts! Both mother and baby are doing fine and I'm feeling pretty excited too! From a couple of very proud parents and an ecstatic 14 year old 'older sister' who's been waiting a long time for a soulmate and can't quite believe she's finally arrived!

Jim Clark Posted October 30, 2008 Share Posted October 30, 2008 I would like to be the first to congratulate you both. If you need a canvas cover for the pram we could probably make one by the time she is maybe 6 or 7. Best regards Jim. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

M5Clive Posted October 31, 2008 Author Share Posted October 31, 2008 What? And turn the heating on before the start of December? Have you not seen the price of heating oil.......! I don't want Amelia coming home and immediately becoming accustomed to a live of frivolous expenses - You haven't got a smaller fleece I could borrow as well have you?

Adrian Barrell Posted October 31, 2008 Share Posted October 31, 2008 (edited) I would have thought any fleece of Jacks would be big enough for the four of you......! Edited October 31, 2008 by Adrian Barrell can't count! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
