My sweet baby boy, Owen Jonas, was born on January 11th, at 10:41. He weighed 6 lb 14 oz at birth and measured 20.5 inches long. He is completely happy and healthy and we are so in love with him!

I will provide some birth details soon when I find a few extra minutes. He did come spontaneously at 39 weeks and we had a fantastically "normal" vaginal delivery. Birth glucose = 83! Because we had prepared for the labor using the Bradley method, we were even able to deliver him unmedicated in the hospital. More to come...

Thanks to all of you for your support, information, and advice throughout the pregnancy! This group rocks!

Hoorah to all the good news!! Congrats and enjoy this special time!!

Cuuute! congratulations!

He is absolutely precious!

Adorable! Can't wait to hear the details. I am having a c-section on Friday (39 weeks), not because of the D but because of ovarian cysts that need to be removed. Hoping for such good blood sugar results for her, too.
