Korben Alexander is Finally Here  

post #1 of 11
Thread Starter 
He was born on Halloween at 1:08 a.m. after 24 hours of hard labor. (Ouch...)

He was 7 lbs. 12 oz. and 20 1/2 inches long. (So much for this big baby that everyone was warning me about since he was two weeks overdue.)

I'm still getting over some of the shit they pulled during the last phase of labor. Such as HOLDING HIM IN when he was trying to come out because the damn doctor wasn't there. Guess what? The doctor didn't make it on time. He came out whether they liked it or not.

I tore while they were holding him in...but at this point, I don't care anymore. He's perfect.

On another note, the coolest thing is that when we finally came home...my high school diploma was waiting for me. (I had taken my GED test all of two weeks before I gave birth to him.)

He's been latching on like a pro and been doing awesome possum. I'm so giddy!
