Am - He's gorgeous ! you must be so proud.

On the maternity pad subject - I find the more children you have the more you bleed and the worse afterbirth pains you have . My pains are worse than labour pains.

Sorry but be warned lol

I was taking painkillers every 4 hours last time, even waking up in the night taking them which looking back was unwise.:o

I'm stocking up on the nurofen already

i dont mind.i'd rather be prepared for a lot of pain than think its a pant, a push and theres a baby. lol. one of the first things my friend said to me when i told her i was pregnant was 'people lie. giving birth hurts. not a little but massivley so'

Definite vote for Boots Maternity Pads here!

And take SB's advice and embrace the sloggi wearer within - buying cheap big knickers was a false economy for me...they had no 'give' and made my stitches really sore. I ended up wearing my maternity bikini bottoms and sending out for some comfy sloggis...

Congrats to the new arrivals and what a beautiful name durham.
