I'll take a page out of Amy's book and ask.... when will our baby be born, how long, and how much will it weigh?
This will be our 4th kid, scheduled for January 14.

well I was too early on amy, but learned that the first child is usally late... Since this is your fourth (congrats) I'd have to say... January 11th if it's a boy and January 10th if it's a girl. ;) Weighing in at 8lbs 7 ounces.

before I venture a guess, give me some history on your first 3 kids...

Man, is everyone trying to over populate the world or what..............

I've got enough kids running around the world to more than make up for 2 or 3 families...............

January 7th - 7lbs 9oz.

Mike

my moms birthday Better not miss it or she will hunt you down with a ruler!

lol

#1. Premature by a month. Girl
#2. A little early. Girl
#3. A little early. Boy. Almost identical in size and weight as #2.
#4. Going to be another boy.
My parents were 5'6" and 5'9", I'm 6'.
My wife's parents are 5'9" and 6'. Wife is 6'.

You need an additional three more to match our family size.

January 7th in the am with a birth weight of 5lbs-9ozs. That's a big guess from not knowing much else.

January 2nd, 21" long, 10 lbs 4ozs

I think my wife would be happy with that.

Jan 10th - 8lbs 3oz

I assume you all are getting ready for the new little one?

My guess will be (if it hasn't happened already)

January 10, 2:30pm
6lb 14oz
21""

Well Illuminati was off by two ounces.

For the first time, the baby wasn't taken early. Baby Owen came out today at 10lbs 6 ounces.

This was the smallest of our four kids.

The premature baby was 10lbs 13 ozs. The next two were 11lbs 4ozs.

He's been shipped to another hospital with a great neonatal intensive care unit. He's suffering from
Persistent Pulmonary Hypertension so we're not out of the woods yet.

10 lbs 13 oz premature???

good grief, she grows those babies fast!

congrats on the new addition to the family... hope the new little one recovers quickly! Let us know when everyone is home!

cheers mate! hope everyone gets home safe and sound real soon

Congrats Moon

Basicly PPH is when the baby doesn't switch bloodflow over to the lungs when born. In the womb they get their oxygen from the umbilical cord.
It's a condition that can go downhill very quickly. Thankfully our baby is now breathing on his own without oxygen. All he needs to do is start
gainning weight and he'll be home. Babies with PPH are about a 1:700 chance.
