OK a little late in this post, but hey its been a little crazy lately! He was born 12/30/2008 at 8:57 pm. He weighed 8 lbs 0.3 oz and was 20.5" in length. Well we just had his 2 week checkup and he weighed 8 lb 9 oz and was 21.5" in length.
Being parents is incredible! And its true that you must nap when he naps! I learned that the 1st day home. He is a great eater and sleeper. So far we have had only 1 crazy night (think he had gas!) where I didnt get much sleep (ok about 2 hrs) but luckily I got to sleep in that next morning.
Overall, the newborn stage is going great, better than I expected. Labor was more difficult than I expected (I have much more respect for all Moms!) and the entire process of bringing a life into this world is truly a miracle!
