And exactly 22 minutes after Karen the midwife arrived here, little Marcus was born into the world, accompanied by a sudden summer thunderstorm which disappeared as quickly as it had appeared. He weighed 8lb 4oz and was a lengthy 22 inches long. Sabine's total active labour lasted only 2 hours and 4 minutes, which is very fast for any birth, let alone a first baby. Sabine attributes this to the large quantities of Raspberry leaf tea which she drank in her last month of pregancy. The whole experience was absolutely wonderful, especially having the baby at home in comfortable surroundings. Everyone should consider having their baby at home; we'll never consider anything else. So, aside from sleep deprivation, everyone is doing fine. Feel free to email us. We'd love to hear from you!
