The contractions started at 4 am and by 11am it was clear that a move to the hospital was needed. It's about 14 miles to the main Sprog delivering place I now know that a hectic drive with a pregnant women in some pain doesn't lend itself to the comfort settings of an RS We parked up and the entrance was about 80yards away, out of the car another contraction!!......Into the ward..into a room......................... BOOSH!.....15 minutes later..hello Millie.I've taken some photos and when I've had a kip and work out the settings on this new computer I'll load them up if that's tickerdy boo with you guys (And girls). _________________ Minky Moo & Millie Maloo.

Although, I take it the staff are fairly busy I was taken aback by them not checking the baby (Fingers, toes etc etc)and them forgetting to 'Tag' the baby as we were about to head up to post-natal. "Where's the baby's security tags then" "Hasn't she been tagged"? "Errrr nope!" I waited an hour before I took it on myself to weigh the baby, something they failed to mention until we left????? 6LBS 6OZS. I'm not finding fault here, but she was delivered inbetween shift changovers and no doubt they've worked godknows how many hours. _________________ Minky Moo & Millie Maloo.

Having two little ones does stretch ones patience....I've even loaded up the car with the pair of them and drove earlyhours into the countryside. After a couple of miles a quick look in the rearview mirror had the oldest..@catching flies@ the other daughter I had to check pulling into a rubble strewn layby and checking....Fast asleep. So I just drove around with no destination in mind just listening to the cd and being amazed into the tag of us being a overcrowed isle...Not where I live anyway! The early morning sun punctured the sea of darkness with the birds churping another day of toll............. I love cars. _________________ Minky Moo & Millie Maloo.

And I have plans for drives in the wee small hours to settle him/her... I buried it here as the other members may not want to hear about the test drive and handling of the latest offering from the buggy dept.  Millie decided that an extra 4 days was an adequate time frame before 'popping in'... Hope the moment is getting near Stu....Fingers crossed...nowt else though. _________________ Minky Moo & Millie Maloo.
