I have a boy - 25/09/2015 08:19
A little earlier than expected at just 30 weeks and 3lbs 2oz, but my wonderful wife yesterday gave birth to my son, George Matthew Hire.
She phoned the midwife in the morning because she was a little uncomfortable during the night.. My wife, being a nurse, played it down and thought she was just constipated or had trapped wind. They told her to come along to the hospital to get checked out to err on the side of caution.
We're glad she did because when she did she was told she was told that her waters had broken and she was 3cm dilated.
One frantic phone call to me and several new land speed records down the A3 later and I was there with about half an hour to spare before she pushed the little fella out.
Laura is fine and the boy is doing well. He'll be in NICU for some weeks yet, but the early signs are that he's ok.
I could really do with some sleep!
