OK all, no time to reply to emails, have just woken up and must rush back to hospital. The potted bits:
- Haldane Edward Falby born
04:3004:52 on Feb 8 2006 (why is it always in the middle of the night? Maybe to prep you for not sleeping anymore) - Weight 7lb6oz
- Delivered by emergency ceasarian section at 8cm dillation (why they ask you to spend all day suffering to get dillated and then just cut it out. Could have c-sected at breakfast and cut out the contractions bit!)
- Both boy and mother are doing well (except that Nicki feels like she's been run over by a bus)
- Visiting status not yet sorted, but prob ok from this pm onwards and it looks like Nicki and Hal will be on the ward for at least three days
Thanks to everyone for the messages and emails:-)
well done mummy!
Hal Falby...
Difficult to say after 5 pints...but definitely starfighter potential...
Congratulations. I hope all is well and they're home soon.

Congratulations, guys. He is very cute and seems to have a tasteful mix of his mum's and his dad's looks. Great choice of name too! B-)
hey, congratulations! agree on the c-sec dilation thing - some maternity nurses just believe you need to suffer.
