Yoshiie is here

I wonder if I'll get to the long version of the story or not, but here is the pertinent info.

Yoshiie was born at 15:52p in Longueuil, QC on Friday, August 21st. They induced Gen at 11:30a. Apparently, she probably won't have water that ever breaks naturally. The doctor says she has a "double wall" - first I ever heard of it. But they broke her water a second time after that. Strange, no?

The labour and delivery were relatively uneventful. She had an epidural and pushed for 12 minutes. We thought the birth strategy was good and was very easy/well done. The epidural came at the right time and the pushing did as well. Gen appreciated it as she was tired from not sleeping for the last few days.

He's a bit of a troublemaker. He came out halfway and the doctor stopped. The cord was around his neck. While trying to undo it, he peed all over her and Gen. And right after she aspirated him as well. Hopefully he didn't inhale any pee, LOL!

Other than that, things were fine. He latched and fed right away and is a strong sucker. He emptied the boobs quickly. His temperament seems nice, he's not colicky or unhappy in any way, so he must be feeling well. Seems to sleep alright. So far, so good! Keeping our fingers crossed...
