The obstetrician (who was also present) remarked afterwards that he was very glad that baby decided to come now because just imagine how big he would have been had he waited until 41 weeks!
Unfortunately, both midwife and OB have said no to all full body baths for now (I think the bacteria can get in the breasts and cause mastitis??). However, I am allowed to soak my bottom in a bidet.

The tears are doing well. It's the hemorrhoids that I am having difficulty with!!
