Baby arrival

[LauraJane86]

Hi all,

I am pleased to announce that our baby girl arrived by induced labour at 37 + 4 on 17th Jan. I was in labour for 2 days but she eventually came out at 2.56pm.

She was 4Ib 14oz at birth and came to meet us assisted by only gas and air.

She is totally perfect

Thank you so much for all of your support during my pregnancy xx i appreciate all of the great advice so much!

Well done Hunni, congratulations.

Sorry if I missed something why were you induced at 37 weeks? X

[LauraJane86 in reply to Curlyk250]

Hi,

I was induced as baby was small for dates right from 25 weeks.They made the decision to bring her on early to avoid any possible complications

She has struggled with feeding due to her size which has resulted in a few days in the hospital but we have now found a bottle that she has really taken to and she is thriving! Still keep trying to breastfeed but until she is bigger it will be difficult so i am expressing and bottling at the moment just to keep things flowing for future breastfeeding opportunities.

I am so proud of her for being such strong girl

Xx
