Well, he was due Dec. 11th and my wife was scheduled for a c-section on Dec. 1st....

However, I guess he just couldn't wait and had to come last night. 6lbs. 6.5 oz a few minutes before midnight! We don't even have a name yet, thinking we had a month left.

He's fairly early at 34 weeks (and a few days) so his lungs are quite mature. Had to go to the ICU on a ventilator and will probably be there for a few days, but he's already improving and hopefully will be home within a week.

Anyway, the inlaws were caring for our daughter (19 months) and I just came home to give them a break and take a shower.

Odd, but as soon as my daughter took a nap, my first thought was to post to CP. Although he's early and in the ICU we're very happy to have him here and just wanted to share the joy! :D :D :D

Congratulations! Both mine were early and about the same weight and they've grown up to be normal rotten kids. Best wishes to you.
