Well, I continued leaking fluid all day Sunday and got to the hospital at 8:30 pm. Our baby boy arrived just under 24 hours later, at 8:14 pm last night, 11/12. He was 7 lb 14 oz and 20" long and has tons of dark wavy hair. We think he is the cutest thing ever! Labor was long and awful, and just about everything i didn't want to happen happened and K was very distressed at birth. He has a pneumothorax and is being treated in the nursery so i can only hold him every so often since it hurts my perineum to be sitting in the wheelchair in the nursery for too long. He is improving a lot, but he will need to stay for at least 2 more days. He should be fine in the long run and i am trying to remember that that's the most important thing, but it is hard because i feel like i am missing out on the early bonding time. We are so in love with him and can't believe he is truly ours!
Here's a photo of our little guy, in my sister's arms while he was still in the IMN. As you can see, he has TONS of hair and big chubby cheeks.
