It was amazing!!!!!!!!

And when baby was born the way it was just laying in the water, no panic, just nice and calm! WOW!!!!! I am on such a high! Mum was fantastic, she knew what she wanted from the birth and she was in charge. A really lovely couple and a really lovely birth!

And she was a primip - how wonderful is that? I took the call on DS this morning and I have been itching to spread the news all day, but have been very good and waited for her to contact everyone.

And I can't wait to go and visit her.....Wooooo Hoooooo!
I won't mention the name they have given the baby for reasons of confidentiality, but how beautiful.

That woman is just amazing - I wish I was like her at her age!
