Just a quick update on me! Had an emergency Csection on Sunday morning. All is well. I was discharged yesterday, but baby James had a bit of lung problems cause he was early (sorted now) and now has a bit of jaundice. He will hopefully be released tomorrow or Saturday. I'm running around between the hospital and home. Should be quite for another 2 weeks or so, and then start getting back into things - I hope!
