On the 29th
June 2015 you arrived three weeks and one day before your due date. It was the
best surprise. I went into labour around 3.30 am and you were born at 1.17 pm
in the afternoon. I can’t even put into words how special meeting you for the
first time was, but I can tell you that it was the best day of my life. As soon
as you were born Tina (our midwife) put you onto my chest for cuddles. I have
never been happier than at that moment. I had waited so long to be able to
cuddle you. I remember telling your Daddy often during my pregnancy how I just
wished I could have cuddles with you. You are so perfect Little Bear and I love
you with all my heart. You wrapped your tiny fingers around my finger while you
snuggled against my chest. Within the first couple of hours you were feeding
without any problems. You weighed 7.9 lbs, were 50 cm long and your head
circumference was 36 cm. Your apgar score was 10/10. I was so thankful that you
were healthy and that I was able to take you home the same day. Nana, Poppa,
Nana Rosetta, Poppa Don, Oma, Uncle Steve and Aunty Ayla, Ginga, Teresa, Alana
and Mya all visited you while we were at the hospital. Once we arrived at home
early evening Opa, Aunty Ariana and Oma Marie all came to see you. Everyone
thought you were so cute and loves you so much. Nana had washed all of your
clothes when I first went into labour so they were clean for you, but because
my labour progressed faster than we thought we didn’t get to dry them so you
came home in a cute little bear outfit. It wasn’t the outfit I had planned to
bring you home in, but you looked so snuggly. Poppa took us back to Nana’s
house in his car. Daddy and Uncle Dyllan also came in the car with us. Daddy
set up your bassinet in our bedroom beside our bed. After everyone had, had
cuddles with you we put you into your little bed to go to sleep. I’m so lucky
that I get to be your Mummy. I promise I will always look after you no matter
how old you are and I will love you forever.
