Mel's had the epidural, the pain, the tears and is now the proud new mother of a bouncing baby girl, called Flo.  Bring on the cabbage!
 
After something of a long wait (doesn't it seem like Mel was pregnant for ever?), Mel has finally popped the sprog.  The happy event took place on Wednesday and now Mel and Ben have a lovely baby daughter.  And Sue has a gorgeous God daughter too.

Mel is now reported to be out shopping for some Savoy Cabbage, an apparently bizarre cure for sore mammaries (you place the leaves inside your bra). 

Bizarre indeed - I wonder if Flo will develop a taste for cabbage flavoured milk?  Urgh!

Many congratulations to Mel and Ben!

[NEWS UPDATE: It doesn't really work, except to turn your bra green apparently! - so says Mel on BBC LDN 4th Jan 2003 ]
