Wesley Otto arrived on Wednesday morning after an uneventful induction due to medicated GD. He weighed 6 lbs. 12 oz. and was 19.5 inches long. He is pretty much the most calm, quiet, and sweetest baby I've ever met (and this does include my DDs, who as much as I love them, were very difficult babies). DH and I feel like we've hit the jackpot!
I'll try to write a full birth story later, but the short version is that we checked in at 8:30 p.m. and had a baby in our arms by 7:30 am. I had the most amazing epidural in the world and we managed to avoid Pitocin entirely, even though my Bishop Score was pretty low at check in (4 out of 13). Pushing was a quick eight minutes.
DDs are in love with him and are great big sisters!
No announcement post is complete without a picture. Here is Wesley today with the quilt I made for him.
