Baby Alden and Sara- UPDATED!!!! YIPPEE!!!!! HE IS HERE!!!

[Cataholic]

Baby Alden is HERE!!!!!

After giving it her all, Baby Alden was born via c-section at 933pm Thursday evening (July 6th). He weighed 9 lbs 9 ounces, and was 22 inches long!! No, those are NOT typos. :eek:

Mom and baby are resting comfortably, Alden is nursing well, Sara is recuperating, and **should** be home by Sunday. She will update with pics, then.

She sounded exuberant, of course, but, tuckered out, too.

Yippee! Another PT baby is born. I can't wait for more information!!!!!

NOW, I can go on vacation. :D

[moosmom]

Thanks Johanna!! Have a great vacation!

[catnapper]

I had to wedit this -- I swear it said earlier that he wasn't here!

YIPPIE! So glad mom and BIG Alden are doing well. Congrats new mommy!

[Karen]

Hallelujah! :) Congratulations, Alden on finally making your appearance, and to Momma Sara, for hanging in there and finally getting to meet her new love!

[Corinna]

[Cessa's Mom]

Yeah!!!!!!!!! I'm so glad mom and baby are doing well. Can't wait for pics! Try and rest as much as you can mom and don't hesitate to take advantage of the nurses. That's what they're there for... to take care of your baby so you can rest. You will need your strength when you go home!

My mom had me and my sister - and we were each 9lb 8 oz. No Caesarian....poor mom...but she was 5'7" and a strong farm gal!

You are even stronger, as he could cook in you all that time and you didn't falter! You were fesity!

Hope you are okay, and do soak up all the attention and rest you can!

Congrats to you Sara!! You are a mom now!! Wow, I cannot wait to see that "big" new PT-baby!!

[Catty1]

Slightly OT - but here I am with everyone else waiting for the news, and I click on General and this hits my eye: "A baby cow was born"

OMG! It took just a split second for me to realize, but it sure got my attention!

Hope you and Alden are well, Sara!

hugs

YAY - Welcome to the world BIG BOY Alden!!

(Guess you won't have much use for the tiny newborn onesies ;) )

Congrats and huge (((HUGS))) Sarah. Take it easy, be kind to yourself, don't overdo things and if ANYONE offers help with ANYTHING say YES - now is not the time to be a superhero - you will heal much quicker if you don't overstress yourself!!!

[Anita Cholaine]

I've just seen this thread!
Congratulations Sara! :D
I can't wait to see the pics of that big boy...

[Samantha Puppy]

Good God, he's only an inch shorter than Aidan is at 6 months old!!! BIG BOY!!!

Welcome to the world, baby Alden!

[Pam]

You know the more I think about the size of this little guy I am just amazed, given Sara's little petite size herself. He is equal to two of Robyn's little Jeremy! LOL! (Jeremy was 4 lbs. 9 oz. at birth). No wonder Sara was feeling so ready to have this little guy born, and small wonder that she could only go *flip floppin'" around at work! :p

[sandragonfly]

SAR-ALDEN-GRATULATIONS
to be a mommy!

looking forward to meet you and welcome to the world, little boy. ;)

[smokey the elder]

Congratulations! Alden sounds like a big boy! Future O-lineman for the Packers, maybe? :p

[Rachel]

Here's hoping that Sara will be able to come home today and maybe even be able to post on how she is doing. I do hope she will have someone there with her for a while. Seems like it is asking a lot to recover from surgery and take care of a whopping baby boy like Alden at the same time.

[sparks19]

YAAAY CONGRATULATIONS. Welcome to the world baby Alden :D

Can't wait to see pics

[chrangharris]

Welcome to the world and PT Baby Alden!

I was not able to get to my computer all weekend (busy, busy!) and was soooo anxious to see how things had turned out.

Hope you are home by now Sara, and that you and Alden are settling in.

Can't wait for pictures of your :::ahem::: little boy!

[catlover4ever]
