    Hi Glam, So glad you got to have a normal delivery and quite quick as well - that will be the RLT then! Thanks for posting, we have really missed you on here and will miss you loads when you move to the parents thread. Can't wait for the pics!

    just posted my birth story :D

    Jack's first sugars 4hrs after birth were 2.2 which was too low (have to be above 2.5) - went back an hour later and they were 3.1. 12hr sugars were 2.9 and this morning they were 2.7.

    I am so shocked at how quiet he is - he slept all day yesterday, he wouldn't latch on so he was given some formula during the day and a small amount of colostrum that I expressed.
    Last night he breast fed from 10pm until 12.30am :j and then slept til 7am. He just had a cuddle and went back to sleep.

    He's not eaten much since that big feed - had a 30min feed at 10am and then a 10min feed at 1pm. All he does is sleep - going to see how he goes tonight as thought he would have eaten more. MW coming out tomorrow

    Glam, is there a reason why you went into labour so early?

    no idea - I didn't even get to eat the pineapple lol!

    Only got jiggy twice, had upped the EPO but never got round to starting inserting it.

    Thanks MM

    That's the bit where you fall in love with them, think they're amazing and the best baby in the world ever (which they all are, obviously..).. Then all hell breaks loose and they start the crying about three weeks in ;):D

    Huge congrats and hugs from me.. High fives and waves from Rhys to Jack :D xx
