Popular song when your baby was born.

Oh yes, chicken!

Especially with my first child. Hey Little Girl by Icehouse. I'd dance around the house with her. Poor child. But it was lovely. I'd actually forgotten all about it but it popped up on FB in a 1980s song group.

When my first child was born I cried buckets over ‘Love Story’. Postnatal depression I guess...

Shudduppa your Face.

The song was going around in my head my first night in hospital after the birth.
I eventually realised that the last occupant of the bed had left the radio on at a very low volume!

I can't remember.

Probably Hark the Herald Angels Sing (it was Christmas).

Blue Eyes by Elton John. January 1982. My first born blue eyed son now nearly 40. And still just as lovely and loved!

Bright Eyes

Annie’s Song and Your Having My Baby - can’t remember who sang it though. Might have been Paul Anka…

Oops, grammar alert…you’re…having my baby.

On the night I was in labour with my first I watched Top of the Pops and Satisfaction - The Stones was number one.

Baker Street by Gerry Rafferty.
The biggest selling single in 1978. ?

Isn't she lovely Stevie Wonder. Made me cry even though I had a boy!

First child going underground the Jam and second child was Man in the mirror Michael Jackson

I used to sing ‘Mull of Kintyre’ to mine to get her to sleep.

Calistemon

I can't remember.

Probably Hark the Herald Angels Sing (it was Christmas).

It was Merry Christmas Everyone by Slade ?

Ah well, nothing nostalgic then ?

Little drummer boy.I would sing this to my newly born first son
I cannot remember what was the top song when my second son was born.

I heard it through the grape vine by Marvin Gaye when DD was born in 1969. When DS was born it was Ernie the fastest milkman in the west by Benny Hill.

Pie Jesu, I played or sang it (badly) to my new born.
I was besotted (hormones)
I dont have contact now.

I think it was some ridiculous "song" that was number one.
Dee da da da...
Something like that anyway.

“Annie’s Song” when DD was born. This was back in the day when you stayed in hospital for a week after giving birth. Another new mum had a guitar with her, (as you do) and she played and sang this to the rest of us one evening. Can still picture the scene.

“When A Child Is Born” was number one the first Christmas I had our son, it reduced me to tears as I felt it was just for me and him.

I don't really remember any particular songs, but when I was up with late night feedings with my youngest one, I would watch music videos on tv. I wouldn't be up long enough for the late night movies, and for some reason at 2 am the music videos were mostly rap. Coincidence or not, he likes rap music.

Annie's Song.

Video Killed The Radio Star- by The Buggles ? Thin Lizzy - Sarah, Pink Floyd - The Wall

When I came round after my emergency caesarean I felt a huge rush of pleasure and could hear fabulous heavenly music playing. I looked round the single room but there was no radio. It was all in my head courtesy of hormones and anaesthetic!
