Mom & Baby United

So Jess is back from recovery. Long story short, she had to have a C-section after 2.5 hours of pushing and a stubborn baby that wasn't moving along (maybe he's just lazy). C-section wasn't straight forward either. They brought me in and realized she wasn't numb, so they shipped me out, put and put her under general. Yeah, the epidural wasn't in right, so she pretty much went through the day with minimal assistance.

I was freaking out (as the grandparents heard), but jumped up when I heard his first yell. Finally, they let me hold him and go to the nursery with him, but Jess had to go to the recovery room and I couldn't see her until she came back downstairs.

She is still in pain still, but so happy to see Zachary Lee Goslin (I don't think anyone voted for that name). He got his 1st bath so he was clean for her. He was not a fan, as his grandmothers found out when he was crying into the phone.

Right now he is sleeping on her, and I'm trying to convince her to get some rest too since she's been through a lot. Actually I think all 3 of us will take a little nap now. Goodnight!
PS - He's 20.5 inches long...I finally found out.

Welcome, Zachary!! You are sooooooo gorgeous, but really, what did you expect? I mean, look at your parents! Now, you be a good little boy and let them get some sleep. They need it. Mommy worked hard to get you out of your little comfy hot tub.

Congratulations, guys!!!

Love, The Huses

Congrats to all three! Such a considerate kid you have... wanted to make sure you were out of the hospital in time to celebrate Cinco de Mayo.


Since you expect it, an Irish Blessing: May he live as long as he wants and never want as long as he lives...

Congratulations! Jesse, Marisa forwarded this to me- I love all the posts along the way, I've been reading them! C-sections suck- but make sure to walk as much as possible. It hurts like hell- but the more you get up and walk the sooner you will recover. Enjoy that little prince of yours- and lets talk and catch up soon! Love, Alicia

All the best

Congratulations! Zachary Lee is a beautiful name. We're so happy for you, and wish everyone in the Goslin family a speedy recovery. We can hardly wait to meet him, although I had to explain to Cami that little Zachary isn't quite ready to play guitar and trains with him yet...
