I was just wondering about you! congrats! She is beautiful. I do, however, want to tell you something that no one told me. I just want you to be prepared. One day she is going to be 16.:eek:

I'd like to see more PICS!!!

all the cramps are in your back. I had it with boy #1. awful. but then a gorgeous red haired muscular intern came and gave me a backrub. Raleighdon was not impressed. :D

As Mimi said back labour is very painful but it's not called back labour because of where the cramping is. Back labour is when the baby is coming out head first but he's turned backwards. So instead of having a nice squishy baby face pushing against the inner side of your sacrum (think pelvis/tailbone area) you have the hard bone on the back of the baby's head pushing and scraping on your bones. Not nice. Owwwwwww!!

I've been thinking about you Xeney! I'm sorry to hear it wasn't the easiest of deliveries, but what an awesome prize! Congratulations, she's absolutely beautiful. :)

T minus 177 days for me.

What a sweetie!
Don't worry - the whole birth will soon be your Girls' Night Story.

Yeah, I had that cord + dropping heart-rate thing with DS#2. Was too Stuffed and B-ggered to understand the significance of it all when the midwife was saying "You have to get him out in the next push". Took me *four* more. :eek: It was about 5 years later that the SO happened to mention it and described how when his head came out the midwife untangled his cord and I said "Whaaaaat! I didn't know that!" and the fluorescent finally lit up

LOL... and then she'll be 19 (like mine!)

Seriously - babies are a wonderful way to start people

Congratulations - aside from finding each other, the births of our children are the most wonderful things to ever happen to my partner and I.

Relish each day - even the tired ones - every day is a gift.

Hi, everyone, and thank you! What a nice welcome for Penelope. And thank you, Mimi, for reminding me of this thread! I did see it right after you started it but that was back before I learned how to type while the baby nurses. :rolleyes: I have a lot of unanswered email from that period because I can't type one-handed. Or no-handed.

Things are great -- she is fantastic, a happy and easy baby who slept through the night for the first time last night at nine weeks. She's still pretty small for her age but she's catching up. Daddy is sure she's going to be a physicist and a mountain biker and possibly a rockstar.

Here she is with Daddy, about a month ago:

She laughs all the time. I am pretty sure I took this one during one of my workouts, which crack her up because I am so out of shape and yet I always tell her how strong Mommy is. She knows better:

Here we are at the river last weekend:

Here she is looking like an elf:

And here she is this weekend at the farmer's market, all snuggled up with her pink bicycles:

Awwww, how adorable! What is it about a baby that just gets the maternal instincts going, lol. Enjoy her Xeney, she is sooo precious!!

great pictures! i love the blanket. She's an adorable child. Don't worry about her being small. That means your back won't go out as fast..
My sons were both small too. They're both grown up now and are of quite normal sizes.

Gorgeous!!
Don't worry about small. I had 2 of our 3 born under 3 kg/ 6 1/2 lbs. Now 20 and 18 yrs old. .Anyway, small babies do all the motor stuff faster 'coz there is less mass to motor-ize you geddit. They also look more intelligent.
Enjoy her, they are tiny for such a short time.

What a baby doll! :)

My grandson was born at 2 lbs 14 oz. Now at 2-1/2, he's petite, but within the normal range for his age. It's fine to be small, especially if your female.

Sniff that little head once for me.
