Baby Cav
Posted: 16 Jun 2021, 00:50
I'm extremely pleased to announce the birth of my first child... a boy! We don't have a name for them yet. Baby weighed a lovely 8lb 13.
My Wife was brilliant although, since her waters broke this morning, it was clear to me that something wasn't quite right as she never got a full rest between contractions. She did incredibly well not to panic.
Baby was delivered by urgent c-section after my Wife's temperature was high and so was hers and baby's heart rate. It turned out that baby was back to back at the time the call was made but Mrs Cav had managed to get him round. Unfortunately, he got himself in a right tangle and so extracting him was a little harder than it should have been. 30 minutes with a doctor post-partum and we got our first family cuddle.
I don't know if I'll post photos or not yet.. that will be a decision for another day. For now, I'm loving watching my Son feed and sleep.
