Pregnant again following 2 losses.

[Bexlee]

Huge congratulations. Wishing you all the very best ...... and hopefully a little bit of sleep 😉

Take care.

Aw, fab @merrymunky. So pleased for you both. What a cutie!🙂🙂🙂🙂

How did I miss this? Many, many congratulations to you all. Love the name but am biased, I have a Rosie. She’s nearly 33 though! Keep us updated with your progress when you have a minute. 🙂

Husbands Grandma was a Rose hence one granddaughter is too, two of her sisters also have flowers as second names. One got 'Jade' - very fashionable at the time! Neither of us have second names, deliberately in both cases - my own mom & dad swore in the vestry any children would only get one since being Wartime, the marriage certificate wasn't completed in advance and all parents and they too had so many flippin names it took ages! Hence my big sis got Gillian - and encouraged by Ted Ray on radio at the time - I got Jennifer. Funnily enough - so did a girl who is still my mate, and for the same reason. (Not sure about this but may have been 'ITMA'.)

Just FAB !!!! Daddy looks very suitably besotted so I'll give you a tip - do your best to keep him that way!

Welcome to a very weird world, Erin Rose.

Are you both home yet, MM? (and have to ask - how is your own 'undercarriage' faring?)

we are indeed home and my undercarriage has NO desire to ever go through that particular experience again at the moment. I will maybe post a birth story another time but it became an emergency forceps and episiotomy affair so I have lovely stitches and am quite tender though managing ok!

I hope you recover well, and soon 🙂 She's here! 🙂 And home! 🙂

I had forceps with my first, she’s 36 now, and we both said never again. Three daughters later! Just saying! 😉 PS, your “ undercarriage” will recover eventually but you’ll never look a thong in the eye again!😛

Glad to hear that you are home @merrymunky
Enjoy the cuddles and we look forward to some more pics if you ever get a spare moment.

We all say never again! - my granddaughter (pic as my profile) was delivered by ventouse after a long exhausting labour and my daughter has said never never never again!

Many congratulations again xxxx

How wonderful. Many congratulations 🙂

Ah I’m so sorry I’m late congratulating you @merrymunky - Eris arrived while I was having a few days off for my youngest‘s 21st. Believe me that will come back round far more quickly that you could possibly imagine!!

So pleased to see you all looking so healthy and happy. Glad you are recovering well, but... yeeeee-ouch! 😱

 

[merrymunky]

Thanks all. 11 days into this crazy ride and we are doing fine. We’ve had a couple of utterly horrendous nights where Eris didn’t sleep till 6.30am but the last two nights she has slept though, including changes and sleep feeds.
She is mostly a little sweetheart. We had an 11 day check today and she now weighs 7lb 2oz and her mild jaundice is gone. The midwife is so pleased with her!

Some more pictures! We have taken hundreds!

So beautiful! Make the most of this precious time.

MM she is adorable. Utterly huggable

 

[trophywench]

Yep, just want a cuddle! Poor little morkin would be sick of being passed round us lot by now if we could be let loose on her; just as well we can't probably.

Hopefully she's got herself into a proper sleep/wake routine now MM, does sometimes take a while - remember it's all entirely strange for her whatever it is. Just got used to sleeping in a hospital crib and being handled by people in plastic aprons then whipped away to sleep somewhere else and no plastic - you try getting used to any new bed, eg when you go on holiday. I mean, we have a motorhome we've had for 5 years - and still takes me ages to get used to the bed in that again.

What an absolute darling MM, you must be so proud. You look great as well so well done to you. I looked like a bag lady for months haha. Thanks for the photos they are wonderful. I too would love cuddles but it will have to be virtual ones 🙂 😳

 

[SB2015]

Thank you MM for posting the photos. Such lovely ones.
This is so lovely to see in these strange times.

 

[Northerner]

Absolutely gorgeous! 🙂 ❤️
