Hoping to add a photo tomorrow. Looking through the photos on the camera today he seems to have gained weight around his face just in five days so he probably won't stay small for long.

And on the clothes, yes, as long as I can send you payment for them... or if you absolutely won't accept that (though I can't see why you wouldn't, you're doing me the favour!!)and ignore me again, how about a little something for Sophia and William instead??

I will send them straight after school. And shhhhh....:D Just pass them on to the SCBU when you're done with them perhaps?

A piccie will be more than enough

CONGRATULATIONS on the birth of baby Thomas, and sorry to hear that it wasn't all straightforward stuff, but it sounds as though everything is going well now. Brought tears to my eyes! I'm so chuffed that he's ok and hope you really are able to take it easy and get yourself back up to 100% soon. Looking forward to the photos of the little darling - I'm sure he won't stay little for long with all that chocolate flavoured milk he'll be getting from you!

(Also extremely pleased that the SPD has gone!)

Poor you, I can't believe there was more, I thought part 1 was traumatic enough!! If its any consolation my number 3 after her 'entrance' is the easiest of them all now, very content and happy! Love and best wishes to you and your family x

Very much hoping this will be the case. though will be harder to find an easier child than DS1. Thanks to you and everyone for your kind thoughts.

Had a horrible night's sleep. After the first night home where OH wanted to do everything (even the breastfeeding, I think!) he didn't wake hardly at all last night and Tom wouldn't go down in his basket at all. He was happy to sleep in my arms but the second I put him down he cried. Strage as he'll sleep in it no bother during the day. OH woke up and muttered a couple of times but didn't really wake though we did have a mumbled conversation at one point where he agreed to get up with him at 6.30. 6.30 came around, I woke him and he grynted and went back to sleep. I just let him as it's not normal behaviour at all - he is usually up really easily, before the alarm and doesn't need a lot of sleep so I think he must be shattered from the last week. He's had a busy time and don't think he's slept or eaten much - he's lost loads of weight. He was quite apologetic when he woke up though and did a load of housework without complaint! If he does the same tonight though there might be trouble!!

Sympthies choco - that sounds par for the course with a new dad in my experience. I used to dump the baby on top of my OH's chest - though possibly not ideal in the fragile newborn stage.

Hi hon - hope you've maanged to get some rest today. Gosh I can remember those nights holding a sleeping baby - and the second he got a sniff of the moses basket, his eyes would fly open!

Just off to the PO now

Like you say he was probably tired from the last week as it must've been traumatic for him too

Awww Chocaholic, I don't get chance to read for a few days and look what happens!! Congratulations on the birth of your little boy, goodness you had a scary time. Hope it's all a bit more plain sailing from now on.

Awwww, I love babies!! :A

Aieee, choco, many congratulations, but... you poor thing, how traumatic can it get? Very glad to hear you're home and well. Like pandapaws, I welled up reading all of this all the way through.
