Teeny Tiny Tao was born at Woodside Maternity Hospital (now shut down due to shortsighted stupidity on the part of our local state health minister, I forget which) on the 30th of December 2004 @ 1:23pm after a "fast and furious" 6.5 hour labour. He started us down the path of extended breastfeeding, cloth nappying and !schooling (not schooling ie not using the school system, more commonly known as homeschooling ;).
wRiggly Ruan was born in a birth pool at home on the 2nd November 2006 @ 7:28am after a hard pregnancy (threatening preterm labour and irritating uterus from 6 months) and an even harder 3 day labour. She had us noticing the head raising and commando crawl to find boob reflexes that newborns have but that aren't usually noted or acknowledged apparently, and got us onto elimination communication with cloth backup that saw her toilet trained by 1.
LeonCaleb (aka Cubbalicious and variations thereof) was born 2.5 hours after having my water broken on the 27 February 2009 @ 9:13pm after a horrible pregnancy (antepartum haemorrage, several counts of threatened preterm labour and extremely irritated uterus) by the same midwife who assisted with Ruan's birth. Born in the same birth pool too. He breastfeeds, sleeps and we elimination communicate with cloth nappy backups.
Let the fun continue :)
And now for some slightly informative but otherwise mostly pointless tickers :P
