Hate that term too, it's awful and makes women feel inadequate.....c section is major surgery....I had a vaginal delivery on my 1st and c section on my 2nd and for me personally the c section was way easier on my body than the vaginal delivery, but my first was very traumatic instrumental delivery, it all depends, on my 2nd I had an elective section due to me having a PPH on my first and it was a breeze on comparison, obviously painful afterwards, but the pain of contractions for me were absolutely horrific, we do what we have to do to birth our babies safely, and that is a miracle in itself
Wetting babies head
He is a beautiful baby and I'm so glad all went well, but I can't help but feel a little bit sorry for her not having a girl, I'd imagine she'd love a girl

My only concern would be socialising in town and risk of covid with a newborn. Just seeing latest pic of him with the baby..... I presume baby immune?
I’m well jell of how good she looks also I have to admit. Not a hair out of place and she doesn’t look completely exhausted either! I looked like something the cat threw up after I had my first baby.
Agree she looks good but defo using the black and white photo to look better and probably filtered. If it was a planned section she d have missed the part that makes us looked completely wrecked out too, hours of contractions. Best wishes to her.
I love his name, gorgeous
One of the nicest names I’ve heard for a newborn in a long time, I absolutely love it and what a gorgeous baby he is too.
She looks fab in the breast feeding photo
I had a planned one and I still looked like tit 
hehe I think I’ll use the black and white filter in all my photos this time I might look less like death. I like the name too I have to say and it’s great to see good news.
I do not however like that husband of hers he gives me the creeps. I would murder mine if he went out at the moment with Covid cases being so high we are staying home for the next few weeks til this one arrives and he certainly won’t be out wetting the baby’s head either!

Sorry my ignorance re the presumption over the planned section leading to not looking like shite but I’m sure you looked far better than you thought. We are our own worst critic!I had a planned one and I still looked like tit

I'm sure she's delighted to have a healthy baby and doesn't care that she doesn't have a girl. I'm sure she'd find it laughable that someone feels sorry for her for such a ridiculous reason!
Yep exactly.! Agree
Do a Victoria ‘too posh to push ‘ and have girl on the 4th
Why feel sorry for her? Sorry but I despise that attitude towards mothers of boys. As a mother of two boys myself, I hate to think that people believe I might have wanted for a girl or “feel sorry for me”. I have no desire whatsoever to have a girl. I love being a mother of boys!!Hate that term too, it's awful and makes women feel inadequate.....c section is major surgery....I had a vaginal delivery on my 1st and c section on my 2nd and for me personally the c section was way easier on my body than the vaginal delivery, but my first was very traumatic instrumental delivery, it all depends, on my 2nd I had an elective section due to me having a PPH on my first and it was a breeze on comparison, obviously painful afterwards, but the pain of contractions for me were absolutely horrific, we do what we have to do to birth our babies safely, and that is a miracle in itself

I’m with you there , have two boys and expecting my 3rd boy for Xmas after having a miscarriage last year I didn’t care what sex the baby was once he / she would be healthy
Boy mom here and you wouldn’t believe the amount of sympathy I got off people hearing I was having a a second boy I don’t know where this girl obsession came from
If you were having a second girl they'd express the second sympathies about your lack of a boy.
People have bizarre notions about what makes other people's lives complete
It just drives me mad as I know people were privately thinking that when I had my second boy.
Sorry for your loss. And all the best with your 3rd. My mam used to always say “as long as they’re healthy that’s all that matters” and it’s so true, who cares if it’s a boy or girl!
Mom of one boy here. And now owner of 1 colostomy bag because pregnancy and my MS wrecked havoc with my bowel. So it’s just the one boy and child for us. I would take 99 more boys - just to add to our family but I can’t. You’ll find most people just want a healthy pregnancy, momma and baby.
