 He's here!
Marek Benjamin 4-22 10:09 a.m. 8lbs 1 oz!
Red hair, lots of blond and brown tones through out 10 digits top and bottom and eyes are still dark blue thus far...
After about 3 weeks of on/off nonproductive contractions, attempts at mild induction (stripping membranes, teas, massage etc) we scheduled a medical induction for Friday morning at 7 a.m. during the 'overdue' non-stress testing in the hospital.
Well Thursday night was rough, restless, then exciting...we showed up to the maturity ward at 6:40 a.m. Friday in labor ready to go no induction needed, a couple hours later we had a new baby!
Haven't had time for much fun or leisure lately but I hope to post again soon!
Oh! The dogs are adjusting nicely, a little curious smelling at him, no marking any baby stuff...well yet so lets hope, and they all seem very calm with him, almost aware he's a baby; a bit defensive of what's going on when he cries though, Elvis will prance and circle and 'grunt whine' at me. Scoobers is pretty familiar with babies, he just likes to sit by watch, a of course loves people coming over-they are really here to see him. Princess Monster is surprising turning out to be very mellow and well behaved with her curiosity!
Baby doesn't mind (no jumping or crying at all) their barking at all; guess he heard it before and it's a familiar sound actually, he'll sleep through them altering to someone at the door! Sister is a lil mom again so helpful, and brother is adjusting to not being the baby in the family anymore.
