Hooray!

I know he's young, but sometimes coming out is what you need to do, no matter how old you are.

:)

Mom's dilated to 6, so today could be the day!!

Kolobian - that was intentional.

Ana - I WILL - in this day of technology, the mom & dad are communicating via text - what else? - and so the record is being kept.

She's at 6 cm right now, and the midwife is there, and so is Dad.

I'll be trucking the 80 miles to Orange County later today.

I can't wait!

(and neither can Mom)

Good luck Gramps, hope everything goes well!!


On a side note, if the record isn't carved into some plates, I don't want to hear about.

Yep - I can't believe how happy I am about it. You know the feeling.

And to think not too long ago I was looking around for some birth control pills for grandparents!

Congratulations to you too, Grandma S!

This is going to be a water birth for DD. First time anyone I know has done it.

I just got a text saying she's at 8cm, along with a pic of her in the tub. BIG SMILE on her face. And on mine.

Wont be long! Waterbirths are great, that's how all of mine were. Water makes the whole experience much easier on mom and baby.
Congratulations!

Hey!!!

We're on similar pages!

My bestie (I was her man of honor at her wedding) is 2 weeks past due. We're all waiting.

I just hope that when he sets foot out of his mothers womb, he doesn't think he's made a terrible mistake.

So little grandson is not so little! ( He's a 5-stitch babe)
9.7 lbs!
21 " long (tall?)
As of now, they're going to name him Elijah Paul. (OT + NT)
(Glad there was no thought of any BoM names)
Born at home in a tub of water.
All appendages present. He has a "Papa Smurf's grandpa" look right now, except red faced, not blue.
Mom and Dad are exhausted, relieved, proud & happy!

Thank you all for your well wishes!

Congratulations to parents and grandparents. Wasn't it Margaret Mead who said, "Grandparents and grandchildren get along so well because they both have a common enemy."
