To Chris and Delene - in the early hours of this morning, a daughter, Aeryn Cassandra. Baby doing well; this was always going to be a very complicated birth [some background]. I'm delighted to report that mother is doing far better than some of the possible scenarios. She should be well enough to leave hospital in a week or so. Congratulations and big sighs of relief all around.

Aeryn weighed in at a heavy 8 lbs, after a very long labour (clearly she was comfortable where she was) and an emergency operation at the Royal United Hospital in Bath.

Pictures (no doubt ;-) ) to follow, and I'll keep updates coming via this blog. I understand that RUH visiting hours in the maternity unit are very limited, and there will be lots of people wanting to pop in.



Aeryn - first fuzzy picture. We popped in to the hospital this afternoon as we were in Bath, and Chris popped out of the maternity unit to see us; mother and baby haven't yet been transferred to the post-natal ward, so there's no visitors at even limited hours - this fuzzy image is a photograph of the screen of Chris' camera - truly a new generation of photo too!
