Silas Gerard has arrived!

Thread Starter 
Silas made his appearance last night at 10pm after an unanticipated medically necessary induction for pre-E . It was as good an experience as anyone could ask for at the hospital and I was quite impressed with how nice and accomodating the staff and my doctor were. Silas, being only 37 weeks, actually looks like a newborn! He weighs 7 pounds 7 ounces and is 20.5 inches long. The birth story is really long and I'm tired, so I'll edit with it later . Here's a picture for now: http://www.flickr.com/photos/66283993@N00/2829150192/

ETA: the really, really, really long birth story is posted: http://www.mothering.com/discussions...8#post12109278

Yeah! I was actually thinking you might have had that little guy as I hadn't seen you post in the last 24 hours!! I hope everything is ok with both of you and anxiously look forward to hearing the birth story!!

Sorry you didn't get the birth you were planning, but he is so cute! Congratulations.

Also, thank you, you've been such a great encouragement for me the past few weeks with your blog comments.
