Alexander David Sex: boy Born: 09 June, 2011 Age: 0 years & 251 days Birthday in: 114 days Starsign: Gemini Development: See the 8 months page. Biggest achievement so far: Latching onto breast.

Alexander David has arrived! After an unplanned induction on June 7th and over 34 hours of labor with a real scare at the point of pushing which almost lead to an emergency C-Section we finally have a beautiful little man to call our own. He was born at 12:50 am on June 9th, weighed 7 lbs and was 20.5 inches long. He is doing really well and is a very alert little guy. I can't believe he is finally here! I am a little sore due tot he Stage 4 episiotomy and Alex has a bruised head from the vaccuum the doc used-but no pain no gain right? I ended up having an epidural after enduring 18 hours of labor-but am thankful for not feeling the pain of everything. We are currently still at the hospital and will be here until tomorrow due to being positive for Group B Strep. DH is one proud daddy and he was truly a saving grace during the whole process. He was so supportive and I am so blessed to have such a great husband. We are still recovering and I have a little bit of high blood pressure but it should all regulate soon enough. Oh and Alex is breast feeding quite well so far-we are both still getting the hang of it but have had a couple of really great feedings so far! YAY!

More photos and updates to come once we are home and settled BUT WE DID IT!!!
