Just got text off Blossimhill to say - " Had a big man at 8.15am - Alan Vincent weighting in at 11lb" 
She went herself in the end & is hoping to be home tomorrow & hoping to log in then.
A huge congrats to you blossimhill & your DH on the safe arrival of Baby Alan
Welcome to our newest July Baby; baby Alan 
Look forward to reading your birth story pet
Ignore all the comments of "his a monster"
My sister had three big babies and it gave them a great start to fight any bugs etc and some people were a bit cruel with there comments on the size. It still a little baby.
One of them who was 11 pounds got chickpox at 10 days old but did not get them bad as it would if she was a smaller baby.
Congrats again and well done.
My niece is smaller than most babies her ages [ 7 months now] so it makes no difference on there growth in the longer term..
To the new mammy 
. What a great weight.
Looking forward to reading your birth story.
Congrats again
