Welcome to the world, Juniper Sydney Manning! You’re the most wonderful beautiful incredible creature I’ve ever seen.
Born on the 8th of July via emergency C-section (not the home birth experience I have planned for, but in many ways absolutely wonderful) at 37wks, weighing a tiny 2.6kg (smaller than 98% of children born at that gestation).
We both needed to stay at the hospital for a few days - her in NICU, to help her breathe, but we’re now both well and back home ❤️
I’m absolutely blown away by the surgical team, the theatre staff, the neonatal care team at Derriford. We were looked after with such extraordinary care. Thank you 🙏🏻

Now we’re learning the ropes. Some things come easy, other things are not. All is worth it. I’ve never thought you could love like this.

Not long now, my little wildling. I can’t wait t $Not long now, my little wildling. I can’t wait to meet you! I’m really (strangely) looking forward to our birthing experience, they say that with every birth, two people are born - a child and a mother. Having prepared as well as I can, with yoga, hypnobirthing and a prenatal course, I’m hoping for an empowering birth, but am ready and open for whatever comes. Am I scared? Not really. Slightly anxious, if anything, for what’s going to happen and how we’ll manage once you’re on the Earth side. Last weekend has showed me that you’ll be entering the most wonderful and supportive community of my friends. It’s so reassuring to know you have all these wise, compassionate and kind people in your corner. Let’s take those last 7 weeks (+\-) easy, you might want to keep those little hoofs in control 😂 or else you’ll end up with a ‘Lady Hoofalot of the Round Belly’ on your birth certificate. Just saying...
