    Awww, how wonderful!! :j:j:j

    Were you posting on here then when baby was being born? (You last posted at 12.22am) :rotfl:

    Congratulations to you, and the new little family that's been created xx
    I must have been. I didn't know what I was doing. My brain just closed down and I was imagining all kinds of horrors for my daughter but I can't believe how fast and smooth it was for her.

    Thank God. In the midst of all the sadness, badness and madness of the world today, the birth of a little innocent baby is still a miracle to be soooo grateful for.

    Or plan a homebirth?! Less risk of giving birth in the car anyway :D

    Congratulations, OP, and to your daughter and her new family.
    They call me Dr Worm... I'm interested in things; I'm not a real doctor but I am a real worm. :grin:

    Thank you all so much, all you lovely people!

    Just been in to see baby Patrick and he's adorable!! Little tufts of blond hair and the cutest little Winston Churchill face.

    I feel truly blessed.
