Tiny was born at 36wks, 5 days (or 35 wks, 5 days) depending on which date you prefer to use...
He was 11lbs 7oz and 22inches long. I couldn't make this up!
Tiny's spending a few days at NICU to make sure his blood sugars are stablized - they're pretty stable now, just need to stay that way for several more hours. He's working on learning to nurse - he'll get it. The main goal we are working on right now is getting off the dextrose IV (that's the extra sugar they're pumping into him). Once he's off of the solution completely, they'll monitor him for 24 hours, then he can move down to the "regular" room with mommy & daddy.

HOLY COW! You gave birth to a toddler, LOL! OK, not quite but holy cow! Soooooo cute. I want to pinch those cheeks! Congrats!!
ReplyDeletelol, thanks. They were saying that when they pulled him out. I really fully expected a 9 pound baby... WOW did he blow me out of the water!
ReplyDeleteCongratulations, Jen!
ReplyDeleteNow, that's taking a load off!
Again, congratulations :D
No kidding, I don't feel like I'm waddling anymore!
ReplyDelete"Tiny"? Really??? I guess you're glad that the C-section happened after all. Can you imagine going into labor Tuesday night? Love the cheeks, glad to hear you're both doing well. Hope he gets the hang of nursing soon! XO
ReplyDeleteI still just cannot believe that baby was EARLY! Unbelievably cute though! Congratulations!
ReplyDeleteHe is so gorgeous!! What a blessed family :) And you're right, he'll get the hang of it! They love that mama milk!
ReplyDeleteWow! He was big! My sister just had twins on the 13th and together they didn't even weigh that much! LOL And they were just about full term too...she made it to 38 weeks. He will get the hang of the nursing...hang in there mommy! :-)
ReplyDeleteCongrats! My son was exactly they same weight if you have any newborn clothes take them all back :) That's what I had to do.
ReplyDeleteFortunately, I didn't have any newborn clothes. I had gotten a 0-3 month outfit for his "take home" outfit, but we'll have to take it back (I hope it still has tags)...
