I haven't been online for the past few days, cuz I was busy HAVING MY BABY!!:love::love::love::love:

Late Wednesday night (actually 2AM on Thursday morning) my water broke. We left for the hospital around 3AM, drove 25 minutes to the hospital...and he was born at 4:03AM. I was pretty much lucky that I actually made it to the delivery room without having him! :eek: I was in the room for less than 10 minutes before he was born. :eek::eek::eek:!

CONGRATS, Kelly!! I am glad all went well.:angel:

And I AM SO JEALOUS of your quick labor and delivery!!!!!:eek:
Can't wait to see pics!

Can't remember if I posted when I read this thread earlier. Just in case I didn't....CONGRATS, KELLY, ON THE BIRTH OF YOUR BABY BOY :) :) :) :)
 
  • #83
What wonderful news, Kelly! I'm so happy for you and your family.

How does one pronounce "Liam"? (Okies don't hear that name often. Actually, I should say I've never heard it, just seen it, hence the question. OK, I'm babbling. Sorry).

Congratulations!

Congrats!

Glad everything went well and he is home with you now!

OH ... and PM me the name of the hospital you used, will ya?

My sister works PRN as a maternity nurse at a regional hospital and I'd love to find out if she held your little guy ...

Aultman...they have a great setup! You labor, deliver, and recover in the same room! So, unless mom or baby needs surgery or the NICU, you are in the same room till you are discharged! The nurses were GREAT!!

OH .. my sis had worked for A. General ... I notice they have a birthday in common!

He looks so cute. And your boy looks like such a proud big brother!

Did he have jaundice? I recognize the "sunglasses" I used to see on my nieces and nephews.

Yes...he spent two extra days in the hospital to stay under the lights. Thankfully, they just let us both stay in the same room, even though they discharged me.

Good luck! Hopefully your little one will love your new baby too! You just never know how they are going to react! (Plus, I know Evan could start acting up a bit down the road, but hopefully not!)

Ya know Kelly, my DS and DD are 3 years apart and from the moment we knew we were pregnant until she was born, and until she could crawl we would tell him "she is going to try to get to your stuff if you don't keep it out of her reach"....well, don't you know he was perfectly OK with having a baby sister UNTIL she went for his stuff!!! Then all hell broke loose and really hasn't stopped (he is 11, she is 8). I think you can try to prepare a sibling for the arrival, but they just have to live through the experience and work it out for themselves~~ACTUALLY, THAT LINE IS TRUE FOR MOST OF PARENTING, DON'T YOU THINK?!

My first 2 girls are 3 years, 1 month and 1 day apart and when DD #2 was born, DD#1 was over the moon happy ( I think she thought it was a doll she could dress up etc) , well around 3 - 4 weeks old, DD#1 had just about had her fun with little sister and wanted to know, when were were bringing her back to the hospital - fun was over and she "wanted a new toy" - lol! that lasted only a little while, they went thru their "spurts" but now are each others BFFs - (19 and 16 ). Oh the joys of parenting!
