NHS Pregnancy Book - I'm in it!

[Keef]

A colleague of mine came in to work yesterday with her lovely new baby girl, and she handed me the Pregnancy Book that she'd been issued when pregnant, saying "there is a bloke in there who looks just like you".

I looked, and sure enough, there is me and Mrs Keef.

When we were in hospital (having gone in for induction), waiting for something to happen on a Monday morning, the ward manager came and asked if we'd pose for some photos, in exchange for some Sainsbury's vouchers. We said yes, as it was something to do.

Now I wish I'd had more than an hours sleep, combed my hair, and worn something other than my "to the pub" t-shirt!!!

Still, it paid for the shopping that week.

EDITED: Because the N key on my laptop seems to be sticking.

Ooh I will dig my one out and look..... It's on the shelf not having been opened much!!!

Just looked and mine is the older version :-(

It's online

Mrs Keef is in a few pics, I'm just in one.

Not the best photos, but still something to show bubba when she's bigger.

Nice one Keef - hope you got a few copies of it, hand it out to your mum and the in-laws, like. We got the nod once to say that there was a picture of our first born in the Horniman "What's On Guide". we dashed to get a copy, flicked through and were soon staring at a darling picture of a cute little cherub illustrating the Storytelling sessions. Alas, the blue eyed, tousle-haired blond boy in centre stage was not ours - but if you carefully searched up in the top left was a brown blur. That was him.

I take it that's you on page 92 . . . .

I was in the Pontins brochure once - didn't get any vouchers for it though!

MrF and I are in the NCT A year in your birth book...

Nice one Keef, good to see you are hands on!

Cool! What a claim to fame :-)

It is especially cool as you didn't know and weren't starstruck like the rest of the country. Can you get hold of the originals? You could add those photos at the very very beginning of any baby book you've put together...

That's quite cool, I remember looking through our copy when it arrived a couple months back and looking at that picture thinking 'does that T-shirt say 'to the pub'?'. Gave me a laugh as I thought I might be having the same thought in a few months time :)
