"Just one look and I felt so, I
I, I'm in love with you"
"I found out how good it feels to have your love
Say you will, will be mine forever and always..."
That's right, y'all! Our precious new bundle is here! After the labs confirmed that I was preeclampsic, I got the call to come in Friday afternoon to be induced....and to stay calm. Ha!
Well, at least I had our bags partially packed.
After several different bags of i.v. meds, an epidural and some really harsh/rushed contractions our little guy was born.
8:06 a.m.
7 lbs. 11 oz.
19 in. long
He looks a lot like what the Bubs did when he was born, just in miniature. The Bubs was right around 9 lbs. at birth and looked like a toddler in comparison to this new little one. And speaking of the Bubs, he is thoroughly enjoying his new role of big brother. He's always willing to lend a hand, sing a lullaby and give kisses. The Hubs and I are working hard to help him transition into new routines and to understand that we are also having to learn new routines. *chuckle* I think that threw him for a loop, but he understood.
As for me, I'm feeling like I've gone a couple rounds with a prize fighter. Even so, I'm still not feeling as rough as I did after I had the Bubs. My main problem is the usual lack of sleep and not being able to be as active as I want to be. But the Hubby is home for the next couple of weeks and I have family that's here to help (or are coming) so I'm a blessed woman to have so much available help.
Well the baby is waking up and lookin' restless...Gotta go!
