Title: New addition...
Post by: SpeedyMango on January 22, 2006, 22:21:32
Samuel Joshua, born at 2.14pm, Friday 20 January. Birth weight 7lb 3oz (3.27 kg).

(http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y34/SpeedyMango/Samuel.jpg)

Mother and baby doing well, both still in hospital (c-section) but may be coming home tomorrow!

It's all wonderful -  little Sam has been putting up admirably with being prodded and poked by doctors and adoring family visitors alike!

I for one am still at a loss for words - I don't mind saying that when they handed him to me in the theatre I cried more than he did.

Congratulations, there is absolutely nothing to compare with the birth of one of your children. I too wept buckets when my son was handed to me 9 years ago. Whenever it is mentioned in front of my lad, we say I cried because I was expecting a puppy instead.
Very best wishes to you both.

Wow. Thanks for all your messages (and especially for the little pic, Greenwizard!).

We're all at home now - Mum and baby were released discharged from hospital at about 5.30pm on Monday night.

We're all doing fine at the moment. Last night a bit stressful but all 3 of us are learning to fit into routines that work, and it will probably take a little while yet!

Every time we look at him we just can't belive how lucky we are.
