...and it's a boy.
Nathan M???? Dougherty
August 1, 2006
11:05am, 8lbs4oz, 21" long

Pushing hurt way more than the others, strangely. No tears. But some skid marks, probably from his long fingernails that he's already scratched his face with. He had to have his nails cut at 2 hours old.
And he's got hair and looks a lot like his brother Ryan, who watched him being born and cut his cord. There was a true knot too, which I just "knew" it'd have from all the crazy movements he did!

Oh Krista, I'm SO HAPPY for you!!! : What a very, very different labor than you expected! After him flipping around so much, what position was he in? Did he look "overdue" like your other boys did? Are you relieved not to be pregnant anymore?

Sorry about all of the questions, I'm just so excited for you!!!
