I met with the girls in our antenatal group this morning - including the new addition, Mia, who is now 5 days old! Wow! To think that she was in her mum’s tummy until so recently - I just can’t equate something so amazingly perfect coming out of a bump! It just doesn’t seem possible - apart from anything else I’m not 100% sure how they fit in! She must be really squashed in there… makes me feel slightly more sympathetic as she keeps me awake at night wriggling around!
Liz (who’s mum) is the perfect kind of person to have had their baby first - very honest and amazingly reassuring! She was buzzing from the experience and has given me a real zest and enthusiasm for having this baby! (As have many others of you who have recently given birth - you especially Gayle 
It really is an awe inspiring time and one which is taking my breath away as we get closer and closer. It really is a miracle and one for which I am truely thankful.

Wow, my first mention in someone’s blog post (besides my husband’s, of course!)! So glad you’re so excited to see your Marmalade - you will cherish every moment! We’ve started to get lots of smiles from Reuben, which melts my heart every time! Don’t know how we lived without him….! Keep that sense of wonder and awe and relish every day! Lots of love, Gx
