Me too Babs. I've met Arnia. Maybe one day I will meet daughter No 2.

I'm sure you will Pam, lovely:). Do we know her name yet?

Hi all, thanks, only a quick word before heading for bed currently  48 hours no sleep.

Her name is Teigan Lilian Rhodes (Lilian after my late nan, made my dad happy as he had no idea)

Born this morning at 9:15 weighing 6lb 6oz.

Sorry for not supplying more info earlier Pam,

We've had a few challenges to overcome today and all being well I've got my fingers crossed that I can bring them home tomorrow evening. Dependent on both ladies pleasing the doctors and midwives throughout the night. Jo just needs to get mobile and show her gestational diabetes has gone away now the pregnancies over and Teigan needs to keep her blood sugars and temperature up and not get sent to the High Dependency Unit whilst I'm sleeping.

Fingers crossed for a very happy tomorrow

 

Feeling tired and battered after 4 straight days at the hospital.

Fingers crossed that they both come home tomorrow.

 Lovely names. Teigan is so unusual. I like it very much.

Sleep well Young Simon. xxx

Praying for your Jo to heal quickly and recover from the c section without complication!  Healing and caring for a newborn is difficult at best!  I know you will do your part Simon! Get rest when you can!
