Cheers all. We are home now, having a bit of quiet time before daughter no.1 returns home later.

And no, she wasn't named after a Hot Chocolate song. We just liked the name.

And there was me thinking she was named after the mother of feminism, Emmeline Pankhurst.

Not a new man after all Samdy?  :(

Oh, and congrats to all. x

When we chose the name I did have the Emmeline Pankhurst connotations in mind.

Sorry to hijack this thread, but just to get in on the act, and just for the record, our second mini onion arrived three weeks ago yesterday...a shallot if you like...another little boy for us, so two junior robins in the pipeline....(however shallot #1 is showing zero interest in footy at the moment)...pleased to report that mother and baby are all doing fine

Congrats to Samdy as well, enjoy the nights ;-)

Never get the negativity with having kids. First things the women get are the horror birth stories. Then once the child arrives people can't help but give the lack of sleep stories, wouldn't go through that again bollocks.

Just enjoy it Sam (not that you need telling that), can honestly say that when my little girl and I spent those middle of the night moments together I absolutely loved it. And ok you don't get 100% sleep but fe*k me it's nothing you can't handle, as I'm guessing you already know.

With you on that.  Some of those times lying on the sofa in the middle of the nights feeding one of the kids or singing them my own choice of fucked up lullably (Billy Braggs 'new england' and Leonard Cohens 'Hallelujah' were favourites around that time) where wonderful moment.  Enjoy it Sam.

Older sibling jealousy?

Yep, looks that way. I'm sure she'll settle down in a few days.

Have you done the 'new baby bringing a present' for the the older sister? We found getting the older one involved with 'looking after' the younger sibling was the way to go. Also, one parent making a fuss over the older one while the other was tending to the younger - Got a bit complicated with 3 though!
