David Allen Morgan made his big debut on September 3rd, 2010 at 2:37pm! He weighed 8 pounds and was 21 inches long. We are all very excited and are all doing well!
David was the result of a very long labor! I was originally scheduled to be induced starting on the evening of September 1st, but due to crowding at Rex Hospital, the induction was moved to the morning of September 2nd. Jake and I arrived at Rex the next morning, the 2nd, and got induced around noon. Labor continued throughout the day and night and until the next day. Around 2:00pm on the 3rd, it was determined that we would need a c-section delivery instead of a regular delivery. David was delivered by c-section at 2:37pm, about 26 hours after labor first began. This was 9 days after his due date of August 25th! David arrived safely, and we are all doing well!
David looks like a mini Jake! He was born with a good amount of brownish hair, blue eyes, and dimples.
Kimberly won the birth poll and was the only person who correctly predicted David's birth on the 3rd! She also tied with mom for closest guess on weight. In the hair category, which was somewhat subjective, she guessed that David would have "lots" of hair - we werent sure who would win this category, but since David's pediatrician said he had "a lot of hair" we will give this category to Kimberly too!
So far David is doing great! He is a big eater and likes to be held. I will continue to update this blog with notes and pictures as David grows!
