Our daughter was born earlier today weighing in at a very healthy 7 lbs.
Mommy makingourway is exhausted and recovering well. Daddy is tired and shuttling other children between school and hospital - hoping to keep them happy, included and minimize jealousy.
Any hints here?
Have a wonderful day,

Congratulations - May your miracle provide you with years of love and happiness.
When my 2nd child was born, I messed up big time. I let my mom keep my son and he didn't return until I was already home with my daughter. My heart broke when he didn't want to come home and stay with me.
So, with my baby, I made my husband bring both of my other children to the hospital. I didn't have the baby in the room when they got there and I asked them if they wanted to see "their" new baby. Of course they said yes. Then after introductions were complete, I asked if they liked the baby. And they did. I then asked if they wanted to keep it. And thankfully they did.
It did the trick, never did I see jealousy beyond sibling rivalry.
I'm a day late, but congratulations! I'm glad to hear all is well :)
Congratulations! We just had a newborn last month, our 3rd also, so we know what you're going through.
Congrats!
Congrats in every way...
