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 poundsĀ 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:

4D Scan
Today we went for a 4D ultra-sound scan, at Baby Debut in Taplow. The whole experience lasted 90 minutes and we were able to bring 8 guests too!
We've walked away with 7 6x4" pictures, an A5 and an A4 picture. We've also got a DVD of Lily spending most of the time hidden away behind her feet! The following pictures give us a much better idea of how Lily will look and we highly recommend a 4D scan to any expectant parents:

Second Scan
Today we went for Baby's second ultra-sound scan, at Lincoln County Hospital. Unfortunately Baby wouldn't roll over for the pictures, so we've got to return next week to complete all of the checks. I'll leave you with two pictures of Baby looking a lot bigger than before!

First pictures!
Today Anneka had her first Ultra-Sound scan, as we're 12 weeks in. It was the first time we've seen Little Baby - and the nurse was surprised at how much baby wriggled! Now everything is beginning to finally make sense and seem a lot more real for us.
Once we got home, I scanned the 3 pictures in, so that you can see Little Baby too:
According to the nurse, Little Baby appears healthy and has 2 arms and 2 legs (as visible in the above photos). Baby measured about 36mm (3.6cm) in length, from head to bum!
