It’s a Smart Bitch Boy!

Baba O’Riley arrived at 9.20pm on September 14, 2007 – 7lbs. and 7 oz. Baby and mama are just fine.

The short story: after laboring all day, we never got the party started so it moved into the OR where I had a C-section. Baba arrived happy and healthy.  I am sore but there is morphine involved so I’m doing ok. We are blessed and happy to have a healthy baby boy. Thank you for all your kind thoughts throughout the day!

Pictures? But of course!

    Welcome, beautiful new baby! I have the sweetest goddaughter with the same birthday, so congrats on your good timing. 😉

    Take good care of yourself and don’t let anyone give you any flack over having had a c-section.  When you need one, they are a GOOD THING.  Mama of an over 12 pounder here, so believe me, I know.

    And snort over progress24. That should be noprogress! 😉

    Congratulations!  Your little one is so cute, but looks like he has a great set of lungs!

    Try to get as much sleep as possible.  Milk it if you can.  😀

    Heartiest congratulations on surviving a day of labor then major surgery.  And even bigger congratulations on the gorgeous new son!

    Just think, some day he’ll be some lucky woman’s alpha male hunkalove!

    Keep the drugs close and the coughing pillow closer.  Or Else!

    Holy cow, pictures already!

    Congratulations on the new cuteness.

    Um, my security word is planning15…

    Not that there’s anything wrong with that, but you’re not really, right?  LOL

  12. Congratulations! 
    Popping open the cyber champagne for a speedy recovery for you and hopes that Baba sleeps through the night better than my little hellions ever did.

    Woo-Hoo! Congratulations on a beautiful healthy son! My son was also small, red and indignant when he was born—they don’t get over it quickly. I am amazed you are blogging and posing for photos already, if I looked that good after giving birth I would have too.

    Welcome Baba!

    my word—during91 Not likely

  14. fiveandfour says:

    Wow, that screamy face brings back memories.  Hard to believe I’d feel sentimental about a screaming newborn, but there you go – it’s all just so wonderful, especially when everyone comes out of the experience healthy and glowing like you are.

    Congratulations.

  15. Chrissy says:

    YAY!!

    Many blessings upon you and your little miracle.

    Heal soon.

  16. Mazal Tov to Sarah, Baba and the gang! 

    I had two C-sections and the recovery wasn’t bad as all.  You might try nursing with a pillow on your lap to keep Baba from kicking you in the incision.  You might also try the “football hold” where you tuck him under your arm to nurse (like holding a football) to keep him off the incision area.

    Again, here’s wishing all of you the healthiest and happiest of New Year’s!

    hooray for boys! I just had my second boy in May (he was in Dallas with me, in fact), and all I can say is, hooray for penis, and hooray for not having to buy new stuff!  I bet Freebird is pretty psyched to meet the new squawker.  I wish you all lots of sleep.

  18. Angel says:

    Aw! You guys are beautiful together. Glad you’re all healthy and happy and I hope everything continues to go well. 🙂

  19. Doug says:
