It's Official...

I'm a mother. It's weird, yet he's the most amazing thing ever. After 16 hours of labor, 3 painful epidurals, and an unexpected c-section, Grayson James made his debut April 28th at 4:51 AM. He was 6 lbs., 6 oz. & 18" long. He's healthty, perfect and incredibly handsome. It's now 24 hours since my little man entered the world, and I'm watching Family Guy on Cartoon Network. I can't get comfortable enough to sleep. I guess I should get used to the insomnia, though. My wonderful fiance is sleeping, so he can't hand me my laptop, so I hope this thread works from my phone. I'm also going to post a cell pic of Grayson. Pray my pain meds kick in soon, if not for my sake, for the sake of those around me!

Jesus is metal, or so I hear.

Okay, so it won't let me add the picture. I'll post it later.

Congrats! I hope you get the 12 weeks FMLA from work. Enjoy your time with the little guy. Glad you're both ok.

That sounds like a loooooong labor, but I'm sure it's all worth it holding the little guy in your arms.

craaazzzzyy!!! awesome name - congrats!

why son why son are you so hurt - and why son does that cigarette hang unlit, so glum from your lips - once spoke that life is meant to be dragged, dragged, dragged to the filter - but now but now son - why son are you so hurt

why bother why bother he says, his eyes - so unalert - like rythms and rhymes that occupies his mind but they don't quite reach his lips where where the cigarette rests unlit

Not as awesome as Grizzly Bear Face Puncher ____ (insert last name here).

Yes very many congratulations. And I do like the name as well.

Congratulations, Kahra. Yeah I have never heard that name before. I like it a lot.

Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?

Wow, that's amazing Kahra, congrats on being a mommy!

The patience we have shown no others can fare. Our story is the one only few can compare. We will both exchange a smile, when we tell the kids our trials. This is what we have inspired. No matter what our fate I will always be yours. On those days I turned away, you were always my world. Wait for the time when, we're right, I can feel it inside. My God we've waited so long. This time we took, we'll go far...

Congrats Kahra. For the insomnia nights, you should watch Battlestar Galactica all 4 seasons back to back.

Congrats Kahra! Wait until he turns 2, that's when the real fun begins. Especially if he gets younger siblings, then they'll be punching and slapping the hell out of each other, at least my two do that to each other.

Thanks, everyone. I went home on Friday, and I've been in a ton of pain and super tired, so this is the first time I've got online. Hopefully these pictures will work...


About 10 minutes after he was born.


Sleeping in the hospital.


Trying to eat his mittens.


This is his 'I just ate too much' look.

Anyway, that's my handsome little man.

He is beautiful Kahra. Seriously. Im very happy for you!

It's not my hand, moron. Ten minutes after he was born, I was heavily sedated and being sewn up.

Jesus is metal, or so I hear.

And thanks, guys. He gets more and more adorable every day. I'm just happy his head isn't weird shaped, like most newborns.

Jesus is metal, or so I hear.

So did you get a C-section?

because...you know...if - if you're getting sewn up anywhere else I don't...really want to know...

Yes, it was an unexpected one. I wasn't progressing, and they wanted him out. This was after the 3 epidurals and 16 hours of induced labor. It all sucked. The c-section was pretty much the scariest thing I've ever gone through. I've never had any type of surgery before, so to prepare yourself for surgery in only 30 minutes is pretty stressful, not to mention the fact that you're AWAKE the entire time. Grayson is my one, and only child. No more kids for me.

Jesus is metal, or so I hear.

My wife had our first son by c-section. We knew it was going to happen since it would have been a breech birth, but that still did not keep me from being scared that something was going to happen to either one of the them. It was pretty scary walking in and seeing my wife cut open so they could deliver our son.

Congrats again on your newborn son Kahra. He's adorable.

He's a beautiful baby. The first one is so sweet.

Fine specimen, kudos to yours and your partner's genetic codes.

Thanks, everyone. I'm pretty proud of my fiance and myself for making such a handsome human being. You always wonder what they're going to look like when they exit the womb, and I have to say, I'm pretty excited he was so adorable from the second they yanked him out of my uterus. He had his first outing yesterday, and aside from a few people calling him a 'her', he got rave reviews. I felt all germy after we got home, though. I'm OCD about germs as it is, but to have a newborn exposed to all the crap out there, it made me extra sick. I want him to live in a bubble. Seriously.

Here's a random picture of Grayson sleeping in his lamby swing...

His daddy calls him Worf, because of his skull bones. RUDE!

That's so incredible.
