Sunday and its been a rough night. This Premier Inn has sealed windows and an air circulation system, allegedly. The result is that our box has no flow and the heat builds up, so its a tricky nights sleep. We go for breakfast and this time I use my trusty Swiss army penknife to open the Muesli packets thus avoiding the explosion of muesli that covered the floor yesterday as I tried to get into the impossibly thick packaging. So today I went prepared adn breakfast went smoothly. While breakfast is being consumed there is a message from my youngest daughter asking for a pack of size 1 nappies as she is down to the last two they have with them.

I and my partner pack, load the car and then go off to the local Sainsburys to get nappies and wipes. With a successful shopping trip done we get taxi to the hospital and go straight to the Women’s Centre. The new arrival is feeding well and we hang around while the nurse establishes that he and parents will be going home today and then runs through the need to know information. We take the chance for a hug from the new born.

There is a lot to be done before Dangerous Beans and parents can go home today so I and my partner say our farewells and get a taxi back to the hotel. We stop for hot chocolate and crepes before we head for home up the motorway.

Once home there is relief that all is well but the new boy has yet to be released to go home, so I settle down to watch rugby and draft the blog while I wait to hear that Dangerous Beans is safely home.

Hurray the new family are home and nestling down together for their first night. Now I can settle down and do my routine things on a pre injection Sunday, paracetamol, night meds and hopefully sleep.
