    Well done & congratulations!! Emergency C-sections are no fun (had one with bub one). You do look great for a new mum. Hope your lovely little dude settles well into the family - all the best :) Very impressive getting to a blog post about it all too!

    Oh Max, you and Findlay look sooooo beautiful! Many many congratulations to you all.
    I was a bit surprised to see your post, and I guess the manner of Findlay's early arrival was something of a shock to you too, but I hope you are Ok and taking lots of care of yourself as well as that gorgeous boy and Claudine. I'm sure Terry is doing a grand job of running around while you feed feed feed!
    PS. When you have the tiniest minute (ha!) can you send me your address please? xxxxxxxxx
