New arrival

Congratulations Galen, sorry this is late but I did not read all the threads when I returned yesterday. Look forward to hearing what she is called

Congratulations to you and yours

Oh Galen, so many mixed emotions for you. Not quite the same, but I remember when my DS was born, bursting into tears on the delivery table with thoughts of my dad who had died 4 months earlier. Be kind to yourself

Arol? Carol!

I'm more worried about arol. But I can't help being pleased about the new DGD. Just wish my darling husband could have seen them. Been in tears this afternoon about it and Carol. Silly. But I can't help it!

Congratulations from me as well Galen, wonderful news for you. I am afraid I am like nightowl I seem to be just looking for news about Carol. You must be very happy bet you can't wait to see the new addition.

I want to know how the older one is taking it. Apparently they're now home and dined on take out pizza?

Great news Galen. Warmest congratulations to you and your daughter. I also have 2 granddaughters - delightful but exhausting!

Lovely news Galen. Sorry I'm late sending my congratulations, have been at work all week and although I have kept checking the threads about Carol I haven't really looked at anything else.

So many happy times to come

Likewise the other two. Never thought about 'doing' it; one just was. Lucky, I suppose. I know some people don't.

Can't remember. I remember being impatient to get out of hosp with Minibags because I had been half way through making some apple jelly when I went into labour. Wanted to finish it. I think I was bonded with her already.

Did we do that?

Bonding time, darling

You're not the only one!

Belated congratulations, galen. What a good weight. Hope to hear more about her soon, and how DGD1 is taking it

Thanks

So pleased for you and your family. What a joy.

Congratulations, may you both have many happy times together.

Wonderful news

What wonderful news...congratulations to you all!

Wonderful news!

Galen my DGS (5 today) was born on Halloween! Sorry to say he was an absolute monster until he turned 3!

I'm sure your DGD will be an absolute angel!

Suspect so. She was complaining of backache yesterday. Today -- silence-- I wondered. Got call tonight just after I got home! They had tried earlier. She went into hospital about 10am and she was born between three and four. That's all I know at the moment. Sil phoned me with the news. They sound happy!

Congratulations on baby's safe arrival; hope the birth was easier than the last one. Looking forward to hearing the name.

Congratulations Galen, I'm glad your new DGD has arrived safely
