Very pleased to announce the arrival of Ruaridh William McLay, born Friday 6 November at 7.44am and weighing in at 8lbs 10ozs.

Ruaridh was delivered by c-section after Jo was induced on Thursday and labour hadn't progress as hoped.  Procedure went smoothly and after they had un-wrapped the cord from Ruaridh's neck he had a good old scream and fuss!

Aside from the operation Jo is fine and Ruaridh is doing really well, had managed to have about 4 or 5 feeds by the time I left Jo at hospital yesterday evening and for the moment at least is just sleeping a lot in between times.  He has huge feet and hands and very long legs - not like Jo and I at all - and a thick head of hair.

Now - what age does junior membership of the club start at?

So many congratulations to you, Jo and wee Ruaridh.  I love that name. It is such a great wee boy's name, but good luck his future P1 teacher teaching him the correct spelling!

Hope the tum heals well, Jo and that you all settle into a routine once you get home.

Congrats again.

Kaz.

Missed the 8lbs 10 - yeah, yikes, tum route out seems like a good way out to me!

Would you believe I was that weight when I was born - my poor mother - I think it is the only time in my life I have ever been able to be described as big! Hee Hee!

Fantastic news - we were starting to wonder when he'd make an appearance! Very well done Jo and Matt!  What a great choice of name too!! Looking forward to meeting 'wee Ru' very soon. Much love from the Flint household.

Great news Matt!! Congratulations to you both on the arrival of Ruaridh! Look forward to meeting the (not so) wee fellow at some future race or Harriers event.

Best wishes and speedy recovery to Jo too.
