    Congratulations t117024.gif

    I did wonder if you had your baby as you hadn't posted for a few days.

    Cant believe the quickness of the birth, at least you didn't have time to worry about it!!

    Congratulations- what a fab story to tell when she's older.

    Please post full birth story when you have time. I love a good birth story. Someone I work with, her sister gave birth in the back of the car, her husband didn't even have time to start the engine. It made our local news!
