I HAVE A NEW GRANDSON. He was born at 10.30 today. He is number 3 for DD2. Born by C section like the other two, but without so much drama as the other two.

I now have 4 DGS and 1 DGD!!

I'm awaiting the first piccie and will go to the hospital this afternoon for the first cuddle.

Congratulations!flowers I have 3 DGDs and gained a DGS 7 weeks ago. My DiL has an ileostomy and virtually no large intestine. She had a C Section and was home within 48 hours. I agree it does seem too short a time. Remember the good old days when, if you were lucky enough to get into a nursing home, you were there for ten whole days!

I saw him last night and he's gorgeous.

I got a text this morning from my DD saying that they were sending her home today - 24 hrs of a C section!! In view of her health problems (heart condition) I asked what her consultants thought of it.

Great minds. A little later I got another text saying that her consultants said that she had to stay in until tomorrow - phew!

Still seems a very short time after abdominal surgery to release someone, especially with a medical problem.

I am lucky that they live 10 minutes away from me and I will be spending Christmas (and doing the cooking!!) with them.

My DD1 lives in Luxembourg and has two boys and I will be visiting them for New Year. gringrinwine
