Lassie smog means smug mum of girls, I believe it's a phrase from a book but not sure exactly where it came from.

Maybebaby ~ I'm sat here sobbing my eyes out! what a lovely post! i am so so happy for you! big congrats hun! I'm so happy to hear the birth went great and that you feel so pleased with your birth experience as we all know how worried you were beforehand. I know exactly what you mean as I had 2 hippy births previously to Serena and that epidural is just a heaven sent! it makes the whole second stage of labour so amazing as you're so "with it" when your baby is born instead of screaming and cursing in pain to get the baby out
enjoy the babymoon and well done for pushing out such a good size baby, i don't think i could ever do it :P
cant wait to hear what you decide to name him and also see some pictures of your miracle baby congrats again!

How's everyone's weekend going?

Ours has been good but I'm shattered! The boys were up until really late last night they just wouldn't fall asleep no idea why! And then oh's son was up at the crack of dawn waking ds2 on the way do that was the whole house up then! We are a bit zombiefied! We brought them a brilliant kite from Costco, shaped like a fighter jet, went to a big green area and we all ran around like nut cases to get it up in the air lol! Silly me got involved as well, was lots of fun then but I paying for it in achie hips now!

Thinking about having a take away as just can't be bothered to cook!

Maybe again what lovely pictures! Charlie and tommy were both 8lb2 and 8lb 3 so I don't know any different! I love it when they are little chunky boys!

isn't he scrummy??? oh i just want to kiss him and hug him all the time. He is the spit of ds2 but just a fatter version, his checks are like ping pong balls! I am 37 and have a wooper baby and my placenta was massive! yet at 29 i gave birth to a weakly string bean of a baby (will post his birth pic later to compair). How does that happen?

Dave hasn't wee'd today and is as orange as a satsuma and no sign of a midwife to check him or my bp dispite being on bp meds still. Might be back in hospital at this rate!

Charlie and babymad - breaks my heart reading your posts. I know Dave is only my third but all my gd feelings for him feel like there someone elses feelings now. The only thing I feel sad about is knowing I will never ever feel those little kicks and turns inside my tummy or having a wet newborn placed on my chest ever again. You have to find something great to cling onto in this storm. For me (struggling with no more baby - I get terrible hormonal baby blues when my milk comes in and want to be pg asap). I have to remember that I didn't get pg to feel kicks and be in labour, give birth and have that newborn moment where you feel like you are the most amazing person alive. I got pg because I wanted another child. I wanted to watch it grow, take its first steps, see its first smile, hear its first word, first day at school. I wanted to see it grow into a adult and make me proud. To lie on my death bed, look back at my life, remember those moments and think my kids made my life worthwhile, made my hands and life happy and full. Thats what counts at the end of the day. You will not be sitting in front of the tv in nursing home aged 90 thinking 'oh I never got to buy that pretty dress and plait hair'. You will be thinking of your sons first step, first smile, graduation, wedding day, your grand children and think 'I made that'.
