Lily is here!
Lily has finally arrived! The long 9 months (and 1 day) wait is over!
At 2:32am today (2008-07-07), Lily arrived in Lincoln County Hospital. She weighs 7 pounds 2 ounces and has lots of dark hair already!
Anneka’s labour went well, with only gas and air, along with an injection as pain relief. Once giving birth to Lily, Anneka had to going into theatre to complete the birth process - leaving me to hold Lily for over an hour!
We’ll be writing much more in the coming weeks about Lily, but I’ll leave you with this picture taken shortly after weighing her:

Congrats again!
“The long 9 months (and 1 day)” Soooo weird how accurate biological clocks can be. Blows my mind.
I’m guessing you got 2 weeks off then?

It is weird, especially as Anneka went into Labour on her due day! I’ve had this week off and should be off next week to get used to it all. Thanks for your card - and Derek/Kay for theirs!
