Wow. I didn't expect such a wonderful response, honestly. Thanks a lot, folks.
That was some experience, I can tell you - as are the sleepless nights.
I can't believe childbirth in the 21st Century is so... medieval. If it was down to me, it would be knock me out and give me a baby when I wake up, really.
As it was an induced birth, everything that could be complicated was. At one point it went very Holby City - running down corridors pushing a bed and bursting into a room full of doctors and nurses and frightening equipment. Very medical indeed.
Then there was blood clots and midwives pummelling Mrs Sax's stomach to get them out... well scary.
But mother and baby going great guns now. Charlie so far likes The Smiths, Orbital, Bobby Darin and The Pogues. Which isn't bad for a one week old.
Thanks for all your thoughts, folks, now back to business as usual. Let's FUCK SHIT UP... but only to make the world a better place for the little ones, eh?
Oh yeah, almost forgot:
Sax and son! |
