Thanks again all - and indeed, the little chap popped out with a scream and a road exactly two weeks ago

He has informed me that he is very much looking forward to joining the Mile High Pooping Club...
@ SilverTP - cheers, we have checked out the requirements and will be careful! Our local photography shop is excellent and has the guidelines for each country's passport photo requirements in a little folder - I think we're in good hands!
@ Stephen2D - Thanks for the breastfeeding tip; excellent idea that I will pass on to my wife! As for NZ-Crew's "survived" comment, I certainly don't think that was meant to be rude at all (and I didn't take it that way in any event). I have only ever known NZ_crew to be totally and utterly helpful and polite on this board
@kbd - cheers! Quite a scary few weeks, but we're getting there slowly!
