Talking Newest addition to Rippers family.

Well today is the day my family of 3 is now a family of 4.
My son Nikolas was born today, at 2:00pm. He was 4.63kg, which in the old scale is 10lbs 3oz, which is a big baby in anyones books. He is doing well, my wife had a really quick and easy labour, and is recovering well. We'll just have to wait and see now how our 18 month old daughter copes with not being the centre of attention. Any way, thats about all for now, just had to share my news with everyone!!

Yeah, none of this getting up in the middle of the night, we went to the hospital at 730 in the morning, my wife was induced, and she gave birth. Simple as!!

Thanks Gav. Thanks Beckie.
She is the talk of the ward at the moment, cause she didn't have stitches or anything afterwards either, pretty much unheard of with a baby that size!

I reckon my daughter will be able to swing off a spanner by the time she is 14, she's daddy's girl already. Nik will probably me a mummy's boy!!

i know a lot of mummy's boys on here, but they can still use a spanner lol and i know a lot of tools....nah just j/k on that last 1

amazing she didn't need stitches!! what's her secret? not that i will need to know for a LONG time! but still lol i reckon bubs that are induced are much more relaxed, as mum is prepared etc etc, so she's not stressed and nor is the baby. fantastic news to hear it went so smoothly
when do u get to take him home?
