Baby

Kristin had a 7 pound 9 ounce baby boy at 4:35pm on Thursday.

Both Kristin and baby are doing very well, and the baby is out of the nursery and is with its mother in the room. Baby is nursing successfully.

The delivery was natural in nature, and went quickly as such things are measured. Kristin did not take any painkillers, and I think that she was pleased with how things went.

    Congrats, Blackrock. Feb 11 is an awesome day to go into labor . . . and accomplish the birth at the same time. Mine started on the 11th and ended on the 12th.

    Welcome to the world, ManCub!

    Congratulations! Rest when you can. Don't worry if daily posts are a thing of the past. All of us internet voyeurs can wait. Baby and sleep should be your main focus now.

    Congratulations to all. I suspect that this child will have an "extended family" of totally unprecedented proportions.

    Congratulations! I'm thrilled to hear Kristin and the baby are doing well. How is A? Did he handle the delivery as well as Kristin? You go girl - no painkillers. You're a better woman then me.
