Our beautiful baby boy and first child Ethan Adam Gladwin was born on 17.04.13 {only 2 days overdue} at 20:04 weighing 9lbs and 9oz {Yes really!! He was THAT big!}. We are SO in love with him that we think that our hearts may actually burst with the amount of love that we feel for him and joy we are feeling. He is absolutely perfect, a healthy and happy little man. He has had lots and lots of visitors already with many more to come. He's very popular!
Some of you may be aware if you are followers via twitter/instagram that I have been quite poorly since giving birth to Ethan. I am having trouble getting up and walking about without feeling like I'm going to pass out, in fact I actually did on Sunday whilst in the shower and so was readmitted into hospital for the night with a suspected blood clot on my lungs. However all was clear on my scan the next day which was such a relief as I'm sure you can imagine. I had spent the night away from Ethan for the first time and was feeling emotionally low because of this so I have come home and am taking it easy. Adam has been AMAZING looking after Ethan and I, I seriously am so lucky. I am going to see how I go and will obviously be contacting the hospital if I don't get any better after a week or if I get worse. I lost a lot of blood and have low iron levels so this combined with the exhaustion of having a newborn baby and labor itself {getting such a big baby out!} is probably not helping.
Anyway this is just a very quick post to let you all know that little Ethan arrived safe and sound and that we're are all okay and walking on cloud 9. I will try and get on to post more updates about how we're all getting on when I can, but right now I have a lot going on and need to settle into life as a brand new Mummy. :) I'll leave you with a few photos of our little angel..
I love him SO MUCH.Being a Mum is the best feeling in the entire world!!
