Hey there Hogs.
Well the day has finally arrived, and I am a dad again.
the facts:
13th January 2008 1705hrs
53 centimeter = 20.866 141 732 306 inch
4.09 kilogram = 9.016 906 523 362 pound
Male - Kane Xander
the story:
I was woken at about 0430 this morning by a light in the bathroom, the wife was in labour. A quick SSS without the shave, coffee and breakfast, quick phonecall to the hospital and we were on our way.
We arrived at the hospital at about 0545 and from there it was all a lot of tiresome work for the wife, all I had to do was massage and hold hands every five minutes.
after about seven hours my wife had had enough. She was given an epidural and then it was pretty smooth for another four hours until it started wearing off and she had severe pain down her left side. Another hour of contractions, then an hour of pushing.
After a total of 14 hours labour, my wife gave birth to a lovely baby boy, from a 3am wake to contractions to a 5pm birth. It was a hard days slog for her but well worth the effort.
He's a big boy too! He'll be a giant of a man. Worthy of wearing an AK on his belt I think
Anyway its all fun from here. Big sis (2.5yrs) will have to get used to not being spoiled so much.
When I have pics that aren't all blood and breast feeding I'll post em, but until then......
