New Arrivals


It has been over a month since I last wrote and a lot has happened. My weight loss has been going well, I am now down to 16-11 after starting at 18-9 when I first came home, I still want to get below 16 before Christmas so I had better get a move on.
Debbie found the last month of her pregnancy very hard and I did my best to make her as comfortable as possible. The end however all came very quickly. We had called the mid wife on Monday as Debbie was in a lot of pain and we though that the contractions had started but when they cam out they didn't think she was in labour so they told us to stay at home. The next day they rang us and as Debbie was still uncomfortable we went up to the hospital. After a few hours the Doctor's came around and decided to keep Debbie in over night due to the pain but said that there was no sign of labour starting. Anyway I went home that night to look after little Beth before going back the next day. Events however overtook us and at 0530 the hospital rang to say Debbie was in labour. I got little one up and rushed to the hospital (via the in laws to drop Beth off) making really good time as I was there by 0640 but alas I was to late, little William had arrived. He was in that much of a rush they didn't even have time to get Debbie down to the labour ward as he arrived a 0550. Poor Debbie didn't even manage to get any drugs to ease the pain.
