Little Ethan Cole arrived at 4:30 pm on Tuesday March 24,2009. He weighed 8lbs!! The labor really was not that bad. I was induced that morning and he arrived later in the afternoon. Thanks to the epidural I slept most of the day during labor. I really don't think I could have gone without the epidural, I think women who do should be given some kind of medal, seriously.
The little man scared the poo out of his mommy and daddy when he first came out. He really did not want to take that first breath. They worked on him trying to get him to breathe, and were on the phone with the NICU to come get him when he finally decided to breathe and cry a little. They wrapped him up and gave him to me, it still seems like a dream.
Life at home with a newborn has been amazing. We love every sleep deprived minute of it.
