<p> </p>
<p><strong>09 January:</strong> Jodie (Sun) had Max John 7lb 8oz via planned c-section</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>11 January:</strong> Aimee (Mon) had Margot Celeste. Aimee wrote..<span style="color: #0000ff;">."Our beautiful baby girl, Margot Celeste, arrived in the birthing pool in the ABC on Wednesday at 20.30 weighing an impressive 9lbs3. A lovely labour with steady contractions, tens, gas & air and yoga ball (and Percy pig sweets!). Admitted at 4pm and 4cms dilated. Two large pushes and Margot floated into my arms - just beautiful. Thank you for all your encouragement and care, the midwife commented on my positions in the pool and asked whether I did yoga - drawing the students attention to how calm and steady it all was. Feel very blessed".</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>11 January:</strong> Rainy (Sun) had Isobel 3 weeks early weighing 6lb 11oz. Labour was recorded at 2 hours, and she gave birth standing up, listening to music using the breathing techniques learned in class. Rainy writes...<span style="color: #0000ff;">"Thank you for all the brilliant breathing techniques and the different positions we practiced. I never thought I'd give birth standing up but it worked brilliant for me".</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>11 January:</strong> Vicki (Sun) had <a href="admin/cms/tiny_mce/plugins/filemanager/files/others/freya%20055.JPG" target="_blank">Freya </a>6lb 1oz. <span style="color: #0000ff;">"My labour was amazing I arrived at the hospital at 11:45pm and Freya was in my arms at 12:48am when I got to the hospital the midwife told me I was fully dilated, I couldnt believe my ears! I didnt get time to have her in the pool or anything she was out after 6/7 contractions! I would like to thank you for giving me the tools to have the labour experience I have always dreamed of!"</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>13 January:</strong> Liz (Sun) had her baby weighing 9lb 4oz - I have no other news at the moment!!!</p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>13 January:</strong> Catherine (Sun) had <a href="admin/cms/tiny_mce/plugins/filemanager/files/others/Catherine's baby.JPG" target="_blank">Olivia </a>Janice 8lb 4.5oz - <span style="color: #0000ff;">"The midwives were fantastic and loved my choice of music to dance about to during labour - we had a fun Friday evening ha ha! Thank you for all your tips and advice it kept me calm. We did have time in the water as well and I can not recommend the care and support I received more highly".</span></p>
<p> </p>
<p><strong>14 January:</strong> LeighAnn (Mon) had Ava Elsie 9lb 2oz by c-section. Apparently Ava had her own agenda (babies often do!) </p>
<p><span style="color: #0000ff;">"Although I did not use the practical things we learned in yoga the information which you provided was a tower of strength and a lot of people have commented on how much I must have been "reading up" on things but I have to say this all came from information provided by you. Thank you ever so much for your help and support".</span></p>
