You know we'll be expecting more pictures now..... LizWade Edward Cox 5lbs.10ozs 18" long According to the doctor's figures, he a month or so premature. She started labor about a week and 1/2 ago They gave her drugs to stop it and let his lungs develop more and put her on bed rest. So I had to stay with her during the day. Trust me, his lungs are just fine. The little dude's got a hell of a grip too. He's already discovered grandpa's beardMark Quote Link to post Share on other sites

blim Posted May 8, 2007 Report Share Posted May 8, 2007 (edited) Welcome to the world, Wade! And sorry for calling you a girl! For some reason, when I read your post I thought it said "granddaughter"...re-read it, oops, remember, I'm old GOOD size for an early baby, though!Hubby had a beard when Daughter was born and yes, babypull-ups on facial hair hurt!Oh, you snuck in on me...Jaundice is common for early babies, particularly breast fed babies (85%!!). Glad the treatment is so easy! Daughter had to spend time in the "baby tanning booth" when she had jaundice, guess they don't do that anymore.Liz Edited May 8, 2007 by blim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Chappy Posted May 9, 2007 Report Share Posted May 9, 2007 Jaundice is common for early babies, particularly breast fed babies (85%!!).Exactly Liz!Thats what I mean, really good size and for a premee not to be jaundiced is very unusual really. He's got a good start, should grow up Big & Strong, like Grampa!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
