Silly Mum

The midwife said that Mum had very bad internal tearing and needed stitches so Mum is being sutured now.

The other midwife was filling in my details on the hospital paperwork. She asked Mum and Dad whether they had checked whether I was a boy or a girl, as she was about to fill out the "M/F" box. Mum had just assumed that I was a boy, as both sonographers on my ultrasound scans at 20 and 30 weeks had been completely confident. So Mum said very sleepily, "Of course he's a boy - he's got a boy's face, look!" To which the midwife replied, "No darlinn', ees nod da face you wanna look at!" So Mum and Dad unwrapped me from my towel and confirmed that, yes, my crown jewels were all present and correct.
