It's a long six weeks... for the daddy. Actually, my beautiful other half has been very patient. He and I haven't been intimate since Mexico. I lost my sex drive late in the pregnancy and turned into an obsessive compulsive cleaning freak. I didn't even realise anything was amiss until my waters broke. Then the next thing I know, he's just here and he's ours.

Lachie said Chase is doing quite well so soon after waking. In pain, though. That's not uncommon at all. Chase is a strong wee thing. He always has been. No way would he miss his daughter's birth.
