Hi all,

Hope this finds you and your babies/bumps well! David and I welcomed our daughter Artemis into the world last week, we are totally delighted with her. She arrived just into the 43rd week, was 9lb and 55cm long!!

We were at home for most of it, but ended up with a caesarean birth – this actually meant we got the best of both worlds  – a lovely calm and personal 12hours at home (I didn’t feel stressed at any point including the transfer to hospital and caesarean, hypnobirthed all through), and then the 24/7 care and support of an amazing team of midwives at the hosp, especially for learning to breastfeed well. All in all an amazing experience.
