 This is infinitely preferable. If I ever needed a baby to just decided to come early under his own steam, it was this one. And come he did, 5 days earlier than I planned and 3 weeks earlier than his due date. And he came, having signalled his intentions, by the best caesarean I have ever had and in the most positive of circumstances, which means that for once where ‘I’ am, aside from snuggled in my bed with a beautiful boy baby Benedict, is in a place that isn’t full of distress and regret and a sense of failure. 

That is good place to end my baby making days. 

And when my brain starts functioning again, I will add a link back to the other gallery posts 🙂
