Announcing the newest addition to the Brennan family.
It's a BOY!
Jett Lawrence Brennan born at 4:45am Aug. 3rd, 2012. Weighing in at 6 lbs, 19.75 inches long.
The birth did NOT turn out as I had planned, but considering the many other ways in which things could have happened since I was only 38w1d I am doing ok with the road we traveled down. And let's just say thank god I had my midwives there, a birth TEAM is really and truly the way to go, I felt so supported and looked after and knew that there were people there who really and truly had my best interests at heart and we avoided a LOT of unnecessary drugs, checks and procedures that way.
I'll have a full birth story for you soon but ultimately as far as hospital births go I came away from the experience pretty unscathed physically. Labor was almost entirely au naturale and my perineum is still intact!
I had the baby yesterday morning and we were home by nightfall as I had NO desire to stay a moment longer than was necessary at the hospital. I already feel a thousand times better than I did yesterday and we're home just working on nursing.
Congratulations!!!!!!! Your Olympic baby is here! He is gorgeous.

CongratS! He is perfect! And so little! Too funny since they were saying he'd be huge! I was so sure it was a GIRL! We will have to see if our matching bumps both yield boys I guess! Can't wait to read the birth story. Good job mama!
