Hi Ladies!
Well as I assumed I was Freaked out But it was alot better Than I remember ! did not enjoy the spinal as they had a few goes at it!

Pain is not to bad and bubs and I are both well.
Ava May - 3.2kgs (7pd) 50cm long :-)
Dont worry you will all be fine!
I was told I waa not aloud to have anymore due to my uterus being to thin.

Awwww well done mummy!! My date is for 2 weeks Friday eeeek!! Im being sterilised as this is my final baby (no4). Plus if we do decide we want another we would need IVF again, so my tubes are redundant anyway :/
