[Heather 8]

Just to help out future guessers, the unofficial due date is July 8. Anyone guessing beyond that, I will hunt down and destroy for putting the jinx on me.

[ozzie]

OB/GYN's are notorious for avoiding working on holidays or weekends. Lemme guess, your appointments are on Tuesdays, right?

If it hasn't happened by next week, expect to be told to stay off of your feet as much as possible, go home and relax on the 4th, and over the weekend, and come back in the following Tuesday, and possibly schedule induction at that time.

With that said, Wednesday, July 9th, 4:35 p.m. ET

Actually I have an appointment today. But yes, they do tend to be on Tuesdays and Wednesdays.

Our OB/Gyn sent us to the hospital Christmas night. Right after dinner. Sean was born on the 26th.

[ozzie]

Oh, and if for some reason it does happen on the 4th, don't feel compelled to go with a "patriotic name".

I was due on July 4th, and if I had come then, Ma was going to name me Francis (possibly Francis Scott).

Thank Ron I was two days late.

Again, they do anything they can to not work holidays, the lazy fucks.

("Any of you call me Francis... and I'll kill you!)

Figures. I've got three, and each time, as the due date was approaching, they started talking about induction, and for the first she went to her last Tuesday appointment, and if she was having any signs of contractions, we were scheduled to be admitted early Wednesday morning to start inducing. I thought this was "normal".

For each of my first two, we spent all day Wednesday on the drip, then went home. All day Thursday... went home. By Friday (both times) they were in panic mode and fearing they might have to work on the weekend, and upped the drip, put on the pill, and marched her around and forced each of them out late Friday afternoon.

My oldest was healthy as a horse, but I still believe they (my ex and her doc) forced my second out too soon and I attribute his early health problems to this (he spent the first week in NICU).

I've been "anti-iduction" ever since, although I do understand it's sometimes necessary on the first. After that, I still believe that they use it as a "Planning Tool", so that they can control when their patients deliver (what day of the week).

My most recent was still a scheduled induction, but she came naturally. This was her first, and it was a little past our "due date", and all signs were great with our daughter, so I was ok with a little help for her.

Nowadays around here, they are admitting the night before (10 pm for us on a Tuesday night), and take care of all of the IV's and monitors, then start the drip and let the mothers sleep as much as they can through the night, and the doctor checks the progress the next morning. Luckily, her water broke naturally overnight, and they stopped the drip, and actually were trying to slow her down until her OB/GYN was able to come back around noon.

[Freitag]

She's actually going with something Canadian.

[Jujubees2]

Since it's the first one it will be late. I'll say July 14th at 2:30 p.m.

[drusilla]

july 7th 8:30am just like me.

[Thebazile78]

Since it's the first one it will be late. I'll say July 14th at 2:30 p.m.

Don't bank on that ... I was the first one for my mom and I was early.

Dad was banking on me to be late ... so he and Pop (Dad's dad) were up all night the night before I came home painting my nursery and assembling my crib.

[AngelAmy]

July 11th 6am

I am mean.

[Thebazile78]

July 11th 6am

I am mean.

It's not as mean as something like July 21st at 11:55pm ... and, no, that's not my guess.

[Tall_James]

July 2nd at 3:23 pm.

And the kid will rake the doctor's eyes as he comes out.

[JPMNICK]

this baby loves it's mamma, and is really comfy in there

July 21

[Kris10]

7/4 @ 7:04pm

[Piuki]

July 2 @ 1:56pm....one year to the minute after Baby Bandit! :clap:

[Section 8]

Heather went into labor on Sunday evening. After 1 failed epidural, one GOOD epidural, and one baby not liking the oxytocin, they went in via c-section and retrieved our son at 11:55am on July 7. We knew that he was going to be big even before the Dr who was doing the delivery said, "OH MY GOD!" and proceeded to pull Heather all over the bed to pry him loose.

Height: 19 inches
Weight: 10 pounds even

Light brown hair, natural mohawk right down the middle.
All fingers and toes are present.
Everything seems to work okay, although he needs to take another hearing test today, as he was hearing, just falling short of passing. The tech's are saying there could still be some fluid left in his ears.

Pictures will follow as soon as I up load them.

Thank you all for your concern and we'll all see you soon!

Section 8

[EliSnow]

Congratulations to you both!

[Reephdweller]

Looks like Baby 8 is almost ready for the Heavyweight Division.

Section 8

Congrats!! :clap:

The fluid on the ears things is pretty typical from what I understand. He's been swimming in it for 40 weeks, so it makes sense it'll be pretty gooey in there for a day or two!

[JPMNICK]

wow that's a huge baby!

congrats to the both of you!

Congrats on the birth of yer lil Luchador!!!

[Tenbatsuzen]

Dr who was doing the delivery said, "OH MY GOD!" and proceeded to chokeslam Heather through a flaming table as the delivery room nurses chanted "ECW".


Fixed that for you.

Heather, 8, and Jackson, congratulations! I'm very happy for all of you!

[Lady Resin]

Congrats to mom and dad!! Welcome to the world Baby 8. He's going to be a big boy. My nephew was 9 lbs when he was born. He's 15 months old now and weighs 31 lbs. Enjoy your time with him!!:clap:

[Hottub]

Not necessarily. Kevin was 10 lbs 9 oz when he was born. Now he is as thin as me!(and as good looking)

[Lady Resin]

Not necessarily. Kevin was 10, 9,' when he was born. Now he is as thin as me!(and as good looking)

My sister is 5'10" and her hubby is 6'. My sister was soooooooo skinny as a kid and my bro-in-law is in shape. I'm sure it's baby fat he has to work off. Check out the gut:

[IamPixie]

amazing news!!! Congratulations on your new bundle of joy!

[Heather 8]

Thanks, everyone.

We just got home from the hospital 2 and a half hours ago. Holy hell, do I hurt. But it was well worth it.

10 LBS? Jesus christ. I would die.
We knew all along that he would be about that big (we had plenty of ultrasounds predicting that), but none of the doctors would even entertain that idea. In fact, I had yet another u/s during labor and that tech said "I guarantee he won't be any larger than 8 lb, 9 oz." She never did show up again to take back her guarantee.

And since the request went out for pics, here's a couple to tide you over.

Jackson Owen 8 at a few minutes old.

"Just because I'm two days old doesn't mean I have to take your b.s."

And, of course, the gimmick pic:

[AngelAmy]

holy crap he's so CUTE!

he is going to be a little bruiser when he grows up


i bet he can flair chop randy's chest off already.

[Hottub]

You done good, kid. Real good. He's awesome!:clap:
http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v294/RFPeachy/0709081133.jpg

You are going to be really sore and bitchy for more than a week. I hope 8 is ready to deal with it. It's all worth it.

When MsTub got the C, I got a peek at her guts. I pray to God 8 did the same. (high fiving the anesthesiologist and nurses):clap:

[Drunky McBetidont]

congratulations on a great baby!

:)

[Reephdweller]

That is one cute baby! Congrats!

[Caseyelan]

OMG OMG OMG OMG

[Section 8]

Had first pediatrician visit today... According to the doc, he's perfectly healthy...

And the hospital was off on one thing...

He's not 19 inches long... He's 20 and a half...

So he's even BIGGER than originally thought...

[Heather 8]

When MsTub got the C, I got a peek at her guts. I pray to God 8 did the same. (high fiving the anesthesiologist and nurses):clap:

8 was yelled at by one of the doctors for trying to peek over the curtain. He did manage to get video starting just seconds after Jackson was yanked out. And yes, he is threatening to put it up on YouTube.

Congratulations! He's adorable.

...but

No mask?

Wait for it... :devil2:

[Badinia]

He's amazing. Congrats to everyone involved!

So should julianna and jackson just start going steady now? or should I wait for collin alkey to treat julianna shitty so she goes for good guy jackson?

Baby relationships are difficult.

I hope you aren't hurting too much.

[Heather 8]

Ah, the newest supercouple to hit RonFez.net, the Double J's. Jack does seem to have a thing for older girls. :thumbup:

I hope you aren't hurting too much.

It's not too bad today. Probably would be feeling better if I stayed in bed, but I just couldn't allow myself to do that. Jack & I are PA-bound this weekend to visit family.

[RhinoinMN]

Congrats!!!

Hope all is well with you and your family.

[Sheila]

Congratulations, that's one cute baby!!!! hope your recovery goes smoothly.

[Heather 8]

CONGRATS TO THE 8's. Can we make the kid a heel?

No. Give up the dream of him joining La Famiglia, Ralph (though, at 25% Italian, he's more guido than 5 members of that group combined).
