[Lou15]

Congratulations Cheryl! Sorry to hear it was so traumatic but glad you are both doing well.
My labour was pretty awful too but I was fortunate not to need a caesarean- was very close to it I think though. Will post more about it if people want to know but not sure all you pregnant ladies need to know the details!
Am trying to upload pictures of gorgeous Matthew but it keeps saying the files are too large?? Can anyone help??

 

[thethomsons]

CONGRATS Cheryl such lovely news! You will be glad labour is over sounds like was tough going. Can't wait to see pics!!

Lou- I always manage uploading photos by using my phone. If using comp u have to export to desktop and change file size to small!

Looking forward to seeing Matthew and Leo!

He is a little sweetie Cheryl! How are you finding motherhood?

 

[CherylC3]

Aw Elaine it's amazing Hun, bet u can't wait now once I got to 30wks I just wanted him to come so bad...x

Cupcake I'm loving it.. Just can't wait to get out with the pram and I'm not housebound.. Being a mum is the best feeling in the world. Xx

Cheryl - Congrats hun and what a little angel

Enjoy but make sure you get plenty of rest for your body to recover - no being super mum! housework etc can wait

And remember no sneezing, laughing, coughing etc as ouchie - but it will get better and become a distant memory (I should know mum to two boys both delivered by c-section)

Congrats again - not long until this thread is awash with little baby pics and gory details of labours and births

[CherylC3]

Aw thanks missy I kno my hubby keeps making me laugh and it's too painful lol.. How are u doing Hun? Xx

 

[Lou15]

Our beautiful boy Matthew! We are loving every minute of being his parents and have to say that he is more than worth all the sadness, sickness and pain! He is just an absolute joy.

Cheryl, Leo is utterly gorgeous- congratulations again!

 

[cupcake1981]

Lou and Cheryl your boys are just lovely?

Is everyone else having boys on here this thread to? The other thread Cheryl and I are on nearly all the babies are girls. I have my 20 wk scan next Wednesday, hoping to find out!!!

 

[mannymoo]

Cheryl and Lou your boys are both beautiful. Totally gorgeous!! Congrats again.

Cupcake I'm not sure if we are pink or blue but both dh and I think we're team blue. 7 of my friends have had babies in the last couple of months and out of all, only 1 girl. How exciting that you will know in less than a week!!

I had a scan this morning and all still good. Have an internal exam in 2 weeks when GYN will advise if we go natural or Cesar. If Cesar, it will be 3 weeks today!

Cheryl and Lou - any advice on what type of birth to try for??

 

[Lou15]

Manny, my vaginal birth was truly awful. I would opt for an elective caesarean next time if at all possible. However, lots of people have good natural deliveries so don't let me put you off. I can describe what happened if anyone wants to know but it wasn't pretty!
