No, the tile in your sig; the game icon. It's rubbish.

Congrats.

I assume it's a girl?

BTW I misread that as Ronald McDonald.

Congratulations Malc! Best wishes and all that! :luv:

Of course you have cursed her with a birthday close to the other great present giving time of year, but please don't let that give you sleepless nights.

I chose "Richard Gaywood" and am frankly astounded that I was wrong.

Unless she's ginger. Or blonde.

And at 11lbs 9oz, she's not so much bouncing as thudding heavily! I mean, crikey o'reilly, that is a big baby. Tell you missus that someone in work's friend's daughter gave birth to one that was just shy of A STONE. As a newborn, she resembled a four month old!

romanista · **Posted:** Fri Dec 19, 2008 8:48

yeah, the week of 16th dec is great for having kids!!!!

AceAceBaby · **Posted:** Fri Dec 19, 2008 9:19

I hope mum and baby are doing well.

Poor thing having a birthday so close to christmas- keep them crossed at easter in future! :DD

ltia · **Posted:** Fri Dec 19, 2008 9:28

11lbs? I mean... how?

Congratulations! Having kids is officially the best thing ever. Great name, too.

I thought it was a popular beat trio made up of a chav, a gay and an old man.

Nah, it's just a bloke's summary of the numerous hours of labour.

Hooray! Congrats to all involved!

Are babies getting bigger? Apparently I was considered big at 9lbs back in the day, but 11lb is over 20% more!

Congrats Malc and Mrs Malc! And Raven is a very lovely name, almost wish I'd thought of that as a suggestion to preggers-ex (incidentally, we've decided on the name Rosie if we have a girl).

Crikey though, that is a big baby. Make sure you spoil Mrs Malc for having to go through that! And also, when she gets older, make sure that Raven gets to enjoy her birthday and Christmas as two entirely seperate entities - no 'joint-present' cop-outs unless it's something she really wants!

DBSnappa · **Posted:** Fri Dec 19, 2008 11:03

Congrats to you both. I was (according to my mum), 11lb 12oz when I was born. We still don't get on

Nice name but I would be slightly concerned about the 'she's a right raver' gags. We changed our daughter's name a few hours after she was born from Daisy Carys to Carys Daisy as I was concerned that of the bovine gags being leveled at my daughter.

Anyway, as I said, congrats to both of you and all the best for the culture shock that is the next few months.

I thought it was a breakfast cereal?

That is a big baby-a little bit smaller than my sister-she was a whopper!
Tell Mrs.Malc that she needs a bloody good rest after that

Big congrats, Malc. Eggs all round to celebrate!
