Say hello to Imogen!

The waiting game is over!
Julia gave birth to Imogen Eve Lawley at 02:42 on Monday July, 3rd after 7 1/2 hours labour. Imogen weighed in at 7lb 9.5oz, which was way over our conservative estimates! Julia had just over 6lb and I guessed 6lb 8oz
Imogen Just Minutes Old
I got some bonding time after before Julia and Imogen were sent to the recovery ward and I was sent home for some rest..
Imogen Strikes a Pose
Back bright and early, Imogen got checked over by the pedotrician and was bright and alert before chilling out in the heat. Julia was doing a great job looking after Imogen, where as I quickly realised my nappy changing technique was awful! but I have improved and I’m well on the way to becoming Nappy Changing Master!
Julia settles back at home
Late this morning Mother and Baby were released and we are all settling in back at home, comfort levels not helped by the heat and the annual swarms of thrips - crawling all over you, the walls and basically everything! Despite this mother and baby are resting up and daddy is ready and on call!
Now the real work begins!….
to be continued…







Awesome to see her! Bravo team R/J - well worth the wait!
