We have our boy! Isaac was born last night at some time past 10:00. He's 3 pounds exactly, and 15" long, so he's a tiny little peanut but he's got all his stuff and he's doing great. He's got a good amount of dark hair, so maybe he got lucky and got Dennis' hair instead of mine. I've only seen him swaddled, but Dennis reports that he has very long arms and when he's not swaddled, he's really active, which makes the doctors happy. Dennis gets to spend more time in the nicu than I do since he can, you know, stand up and walk.
I got to hold him in the nicu this morning. He's so small and sweet, and he was wearing a silly little red hat.
He's breathing on his own; they had him on oxygen at first but he was off it an hour after he was born. Hooray for the steroid shots I got for his lungs. He's getting fed via IV, but hopefully in the next few days he can start having boobie juice in a tube. The lactation nurse will help me get started tomorrow.
I'm drugged to the gills today, so I'll report more later and post a couple of pictures when I remember how photoshop works. Now, back to sleep.
