here is an advice form someone who raised 10 children. don't wait too long for your second child, the closer in age the better. this way they can get busy with each other and not demand your attention all the time. also they'll become closer to each other.

We won't have another. Will adopt if we decide to have more than one.

We are still in labor. Little guy is being stubborn and doesn't want to come out! Hopefully we will see him before the day ends. She wanted him born 11/12/13.

Not today. Last Monday they estimated him 8lbs. No clue how big he is now. They grow about half lb a week the last few weeks I think??? So maybe 8.5??

**GirlyGymRat** · 11-12-2013, 07:00 PM

How's momma holding up???? Little guy gotta be making his entrance soon!!b

**OnTheSauce** · 11-12-2013, 07:20 PM

She's hurting. We are now 6cm

**3day** · 11-12-2013, 07:25 PM

Should be reaching 10cm soon and begin pushing. Congrats

Congratulations. Hope all THREE of you are doing well. The start of a family.

**OnTheSauce** · 11-13-2013, 08:36 AM

We are doing well this morning. As expected, the wife woke me up more than he did. Lol. These little couches aren't the best things to sleep on. And the bathroom is clearly made for women.
