Dominic Robert was born on Friday at 5:46 pm via c-section. He surprised us all, weighing in at 8lb 4oz and is 20" long. He looks just like his big brother Elliott, but with more hair! So far he's doing great, sleeping and eating.
They are a bit concerned about his jaundice levels (skin tests put him in the "high" category, blood test does not...) we did one last blood test this morning and depending on how that comes back will determine if he needs to go under the lights or not.
Elliott came to the hospital on Saturday and was not at all impressed with his little brother!
I was having a lot of referred pain in my shoulder, but that seems to have gone away, so I'm feeling much better and we are all looking forward to going home tomorrow!
I only have access to the pics on my phone right now, so this isn't the best:

Congratulations! As far as big bro not being impressed, for us that was a good thing! Andrew was so unconcerned with a new baby that there was ( at that point) zero jealously, fighting for attention, any of that crap. IMO, it's a total benefit to having them sooooo close together. I too had the referred shoulder pain with my 2nd and holy crappola was that horrible. So sorry you had go through that. Did your nurses tell you it was a gas thing? I so didn't believe them, seriously gas could cause that, in my shoulder, nah. But as soon as I started tooting, away it went.
Hope you don't need lights and you are all able to be home and cozy soon,
