Emma - 03.02.2009

Here some pics of Emma's entrance into the world. She was born at the Mater hospital by c-section on the 3rd of Feb at 14:26 weighing in at 3.2 kgs. Big congrats to Ash, who was nearly spot on with his bet (girl, 04.02, 3.3kg), followed closely by Beasty. The bottle of Veuve is on ice and waiting for you!
We are all well and enjoying being back home, after a not so restful stay at the hospital.
Big thank you to you all for your best wishes, help, advice and support! Emma is the best thing that ever happened to us and the love and joy she is bringing us every day cannot be put into words.
Here some pics of the big day...

Spinal block is working. Not long and we are going to have a baby!!!! ahhhhhhh...

Emma stayed in the breech position in my womb and came out bum first. That's my girl!

After clearing the airways of some mucus, Emma is taking her first breath.


And straight onto the docking station...

Day 3 at the hospital. Emma has jaundice and is starting to look yellow. This should go away in a couple of weeks.
A happy baby!
