He's here!!!

My little bloke Callum was born this morning at 7.50am after a four hour drug free waterbirth.

He was born at home under the watchful eyes of two wonderful midwives and his Daddy and big brother who helped Dad cut the cord.

Everything went very smoothly. Callum decided to come out slightly sideways so he has a massive lump on the side of his head but its gone down heaps now and will probably be gone by tomorrow. Baden had a cone head as well, I have coneheaded babies but they seem to do the job nicely and leave mum in one piece, which is great, lol.

He has a tooth bud sitting in his gum, just poking through, its only just there but its definitely a tooth poking through!! He has been feeding like a trooper all day, has hardly stopped but has finally worn himself out and gone to sleep.

He was 8 pounds 9 ounces and had a head circumference of 36 and is 56cm long (exactly the same length as Baden but nearly a pound heavier and 2cm bigger head - but I think that is because of the weird moulding from coming out a bit skew-wiff)

We are a very happy little family tonight.
