My baby girl is here.

Baby Rafaella was born on 1st of February 2014 at 19.31 weight of 2.400kg.

We are both doing well Thank God and all my little guardian angels!!!

I must also thank you to all you ladies from the bottom of my heart; who always shared your opinions and advices on all my posts, specially the 2 of yesterday. You were so quick responding me. At the time you guys where telling me to call the hospital and whatever I was in the hospital as triage wasnt even answering...

I am glad I acted the way I did and as quick as I did...

I will share the full birth stories as soon as I can.

right now im still in a hospital bed with tubes coming out of everywhere

God bless you all & thank you all very much.

Its time to light a candle for my little one

Thank you so much Armywag.

Tell me about it!!!! 34+4 i was not expecting that at all. I was so scared...confused...lost.... but thank God all went well!!!!

They told me baby would probable have to go to intensive care and we would have to stay in hospital for a week or so.

But once baby was born they were happy with baby weight and she is here on me on a normal maternity ward for after delivery.

I am still attached to few tubes but hopefully all is fine...

Thank You Ceribean!!! I hope God continues to hold our hands! She has filled a nappy with wee and a little poo too. So all good signs. Ive tried a few times breast feeding. She gave it a few good sucks. Hopefully she got a little something... I'm not sure.

I got them to change my pad. Also my wee thing was full up. Is it going to hurt when they take this "thing" out?

Still waiting for to come check baby's blood type as I'm resus negative and I should have been giving anti D injection....

I was worrying about the catheter too but it is painless but a strange sensation. I'm also Rh. Negative and Saskia is positive so had anti D. What we have to go through for our little angels eh! :-) I had a blood transfusion during my section so getting up the following morning was the most difficult - I actually fainted in the bathroom, cracked my head on the sink. I didn't tell anyone though! Take care and enjoy your little girl x

Congratulations! I bet that was a shock! I'm glad she's doing well, avoiding special care at 6 weeks early is amazing, she must be a strong little thing :-) I hope you're both able to get home soon. Enjoy her x

Bless you! I did see your post yesterday but trouble at bedtime me from replying and people had already said to call triage - so glad that you went in and that all has gone as well as it has. She is a really good weight for so early and it's great that she is able to be with her mummy! You sound like a person of prayer so will definitely say a prayer for you both. Take it really easy - you've got quite a shock, as well as birth, to get over! x
