More baby pictures and videos.






Endless baby stuff is not random, but it's all in my head....unless it is over Robert, or his changing mat, or the floor.






Robert is home and here are some pictures to commerate the day.


More interesting is this photo:







This is Kara at the pub. The rather random bit is that she was already in the first stages of labour, her hindwaters had broken, she had started light contractions every few minutes, and had been at the birthing centre being monitored. Instead of sitting at home, she was desperate to meet with other NCT buddies (pregnant or recently pregnant women), for their weekly lunch. So the bar lady asked me when she was due, and refused to accept my repely of "about six hours".
I wondered why nobody ever does this, and then it hit me that this was all to do with the smoking ban. So an offshoot of this ban is that pregnant women can now sit in pubs to help take their mind off contractions. Of course the pub was completly empty apart from this group. A new pub focused demographic group has been born.
I defy anyone to find "going to pub" on anyones birthplan.
PS: Everyone was on soft drinks.

Poor boy doesn't look happy. But Kara does--glad she had a bit of time and company to keep her mind off things :)
