Baby arrival at villa - Sun 18th March 2007

Baby arrival at villa'My wife Caroline and I have been living in the town of Nerja in the Malaga region with our three sons for the past year and a half . We are all originally from the UK . When we found that Caroline was pregnant we decided to take a last holiday shortly before the baby was due to have some quiet family time. I work as a scuba instructor and I also wanted to do some teaching with my eldest son.
Our new baby was due on 7th February but in the early hours of Monday 17th January, Caroline began having contractions and we called the number of a local clinic (the aquario centre). They said they would send a midwife who lived in Denia around to the villa to "have a look" at the situation. Shortly after the midwife arrived Caroline gave birth to a baby girl at 3 am in the sitting room with all of our family present in a beautiful and relaxed atmosphere.
One of the great things about the timing was that we had ten days holiday left together with our new arrival after her birth. This was a very special time for all of us and one that was greatly enhanced by the quality of the villa. We recently found that Ubi Bene is a latin phrase for "where one feels good" and this was certainly our experience.
Both mum and baby (her name is Indi) are very well and main reason for Indi's early appearance was a miscalculation in the due date.'
