Riley Ethan W. or REW made his way into the world on Dec 7thth. He was born via c-section (yep you read that right), at 8:37 am. I was only 36w2d pg at the time but he was born healthy and didn't need any help breathing.

His stats:
6lbs 13 oz
19.5 inches long

what a cool picture! Was it taken in recovery or while they were stitching you up? Did they put him skin to skin while you were being stitched up?

Ariella said...

Morgan: That picture was taken while I was still being stitched up, and about 9 minutes after birth.
