About 4 hours old -- being weighed and measured

Getting his first bath -- he wasn't too happy about it!

Both of the nurses were absolutely amazing and really kept their cool during the quick delivery! They told me later that I hold the record for the fastest delivery (so far) at this hospital. It's only been open a couple of weeks -- still, it would probably be difficult to break my record. They said I checked in at the front at 9:04, and Stephen was born at 9:12. I'm just glad they decided to bypass triage and took me straight to my room. I still find it hard to believe that my first labor lasted nearly 64 hours, and this one was only 4. I guess I am trying to set a record either way!
Congratulations! He looks just perfect--sort of looks like Alex too.
ReplyDeleteSoooo glad you had a faster delivery, but wow that sure was fast! Gotta love those L&D nurses. They are the best.

ReplyDeleteThanks for posting pictures and your birth story---we were all holding our breath! How ironic, I am glad that it was so short for you. I guess your prayers were more than answered! Love you!!! Rach
