Well after nine long months of waiting we're finally holding little Jackson in our arms. He was born on October 13th and weighed 7 pounds 15 ounces. He was 19 3/4 inches long. After my third version he still wouldn't turn so we ended up having to do a c-section. It was the safest option at that point for him and me both. Let me tell you, I do not do well under anesthesia. But we've got a healthy little boy at home now so that's all that matters. He's already lifting his head on his own and has quite the personality. He'll let you know when he's not happy about something. He'll also lay peacefully staring at you too. It's just unbelievable. I'm hoping to get back on the forum more often but no promises. I'm still trying to get used to sleeping in 2 hour increments.

Congratulations! He is an absolute doll! I am so glad that everything went ok and that he is healthy

congratulations. thanks for sharin the pics and wonderful news.

Congratulations Tamara! He's adorable!

What a doll! Not as good as a baby Quaker , but a pretty good score! I'll bet he's completely running the house, too, isn't he? How are YOU? Getting over surgery AND taking care of a baby has to be tough.

Awwwww.... he's beautiful! LOL And he's got twice as much hair as my daughter who turns two next week. Now I'm jealous!

Congrats and take care of yourself.

Oh, he's beautiful!!!! I love babies! Take care of yourself, and treasure each moment....they grow up FAST!!!!

I'd heard you were no longer pregnant! I'm glad you got to take a few minutes to let us see him! He is beautiful! And all that hair ..... ..... For the next 20 yrs or so, you'd better get used to the sleeping in 2 hr increments First infant feedings, then teething, ear infections, illness, cranky, hungry, diapers, toddler climbing out of bed, school agers needing that costume or science project TOMORROW, teenagers staying out later than curfew ... see, almost 20 yrs of it!!

Glad all went well with you. Jackson is gorgeous! I love the little baby squeaks and gunts when they are so new ... Hope you get a few minutes now and then to keep us up to date on how he's doing (and how YOU are doing).

CONGRATULATIONS!!!

**ps how do you like your name change .... MOMMY!!!

Wishing you a life full of happiness with your little man...(HUGS) and Blessings from across the miles your internet Mate ME

congrats and welcome to the world jackson! he's absolutely beautiful. and jo got it spot on: there is no more rest for you. if it's not little munchkin stuff, it's teen angst. my "baby" will be 15 in january, and i still can't believe i have a kid. have fun with him, and definitely get your rest when he does.
