OT...baby arrived

Well he finally decided to make himself know. Sept 5 @ 4:10pm. Weighed

8lbs 5ozs and was 21 inches long. Labour was very long, longer then any of my others, 12hrs. Dr suspects that he was face up at first and that was the issue. After having 7 other kids he said it's unusual to have a labour that long. The first 5 were 8hrs and the last 2 were only 4 hrs. So we were expecting 4hrs or less. Obviously baby had other ideas. He finally turned though and came out properly. Everyone was pretty excited but tired after a long night and day. I had not slept at all in two days.

Baby, Jonathan James, is very content little guy. Only woke up twice on his first night. Parents of course are thrilled to death as well as grandma was there for all of it as well. Hospital staff and dr were absolutely wonderful to all of us! Both of us were discharged around noon today. Came home and slept for 2 hrs. Early to bed tonight and get back on track again.

Thanx to everyone for their well wishes and prayers. I really appreciated them all. Take Care Joanna
