Title: Daughter
Post by: Howley on December 16, 2010, 06:17:08 AM
My daughter was born today  ;D
My wife was in labour for over 12 hours with nothing but gas for the last two hours, but it never progressed (just excruciating contractions every 2 minutes), and the only choice was a Cesarean as the baby had some worrying signs. As it turns out the baby was facing the wrong way, had it's head tilted the wrong way and had the cord around her neck, so cesarean was really the only option.
I'm so proud of my wife, and I'm in love with my daughter. She has blonde hair, blue eyes and is completely gorgeous. Welcome to my life Lila Elizabeth.

Congratulations!! 

Enjoy the heck out of her now because in 12-13 years or so you won't understand who she is, (nor will you want to know who she is)

but they sort of come back to normal in their 20's    [thumbsup] [thumbsup]

Wonderful news!! Congratulations to you and your wife!! My brother in law and his wife are in Phoenix, AZ right now with a brand new week old baby boy that they adopted. They are waiting for the all the legal paperwork to be completed so they can come back home to Dallas. They are frustrated at the molasses like pace the gov't. workers are going. But hopefully they'll be heading home tomorrow or it's going to be another long agonizing weekend in the hotel suite! [bang]

Again, awesome Christmas present for you and Mom!! You both must have been on Santa's really nice list. [laugh] And RAT's right about them growing up in an instant and morphing into someone else! I have a 14 year boy to prove it... at least I think he's ours?? [laugh] [laugh]

CONGRATS to you and your wife.  My daughter is 15 months old now.  We've enjoyed watching her growing up and learning new things.  She is a bundle of joy.  I am sure your daughter will bring you and your family the same joy and happiness!
