LOL Trish you reminded me - I had to cut Maya's cord before I could hold her coz it was so short (must have been all up inside still)that when the midwife tried to pass her tome it didn't reach!

Hubby has refused  (long story) and my Mum is a bit uneasy - I think I'd like to do it if I can

Darron didnt want to and I was cool with that, I knew I wouldnt want to cut it either cos to me its kind of gross but he didnt really get a choice and they just assumed he would and put the scissors in his hand and he didnt want to say no.

Lewis was a bit iffy with Jake. I said gtohim, how about we wait and see. If you don't want to, my m/w can. However he did it and was so proud. He told everyone. When i made my birth plan with Taine, he said "ooooooh, i wanna cut the cord again!!!"

lol, mike was a bit unsure about it, not really wanting to do it, but he did. later on he was like "oooh THAT WAS SO GROSS, it was like cutting chicken skin and grissle! YUCK!" i was pretty sure that he would cut Ayja's but he did.. this time he even knew how to do it so he didn't have to hack at it"" (so he says) oh how wonderful. lol
