CHARM ABOUT YOU

Our 'little charm' has finally arrived! We are now officially a party of five (oh how I loved that show!).

keeping it real - this girl does not like having her nappy changed!

blankets made by my mum for me as a baby

I am so happy that I was able to have her at home and she was born in the birthing pool (although she had shoulder dystocia so I was standing up for the final push!... oh and I just looked that up online - I shouldn't have!!). It was distressing and I know it was a bit lot panicky at the end but she's a strong girl and we're all fine. I was in active labour for about an hour, she was far quicker than my other two.


I was well and truly in shock for most of yesterday, I had mentally prepared myself to go into hospital and she just came so fast (about 6 hrs total). I was also shocked she is a she!! Overjoyed that her siblings have a sister and our family is complete (my husband has just added 'almost'... he would like us to get a tortoise!).
