What an amazing thing! My little boy, Rinella Dale, was born Sunday evening, weighing in at 7 lbs 3 oz and 19.5 inches long. Mama did great, without the help of an epidural, and we're all getting accustomed to each other and our changed world.
We'll get his Hunttalk profile set up soon
Congratulations! Your wife is a trooper, no epidural. My wife tried that one time, we even went through classes for natural birth. A couple hours in she asked for the anesthesiologist. The other 3 went straight to the numbing doc.
Congratulations, Pop. Life's going to get tougher for a while, but I can promise you that the payoff in love and pride is worth so much more than what you suffer through.
