Baby M's grand entrance

Baby Maxwell Owen made his appearance a day after his due date on Oct 17th, 09! He weighed in at a whooping 4.3kgs / 9lbs 8oz.


 Obedient boy we say he is! He knew exactly when to make his appearance so it was convenient for everyone! And boy, did he come fast! Save all the gory details...but contractions started for me on Saturday morning at 6am. Then at 6:15am Mike asked me if i was doing fine, i said to him i think so! Then 15 mins later, he asks again and i still say i think i am ok...... he decided that this was it eventhough i was not convinced! So, he got up and got himself ready...whilst all that was going on, he also asks me if we should phone the hospital, i say no and finally at 6:45am with my contractions about 3 mins apart, we phoned the hospital and they advised that i have some breakfast before hand...which i did! Went to hospital 8am and then was admitted and he was born at 10:45am that morning!!! so not too long at al a labour! Praise the Lord!!!

All was well and Baby M and I was needed to stay overnight at the hospital. We got into the recovery ward later that day and Miks was very excited to finally get a chance to come to visit! She was ecstatic!!!Baby M did fantastically at the hospital! He slept through the night so i thought that it would be great times ahead!!! A day later, Sunday evening we were allowed home! Little did i realise, my joys of baby M sleeping through the nite was shortlived!!! He did not only not sleep that nite but he was screaming his head off!!!!

However, he did finally settle and slept for a bit that nite!!! We have all recovered well since then!!
