Baby Mitchell is here!





Although I haven't posted 1 belly pic with my second pregnancy, I had a wonderful experience with our second child.  I was induced on October 2 at 9:30 am, and had the baby by 5:00 pm that day!  Mack was born on June 2nd, 2010, so our boys are exactly 2 years and 4 months apart to the day.  My labor was painless and Mitchell Adam Silverman entered the world at 4:57 pm, weighing 8 lbs 6 oz and was 20 inches long.  I never thought I could feel as elated as I did when Mack was born, but having another healthy baby only made Ethan and I feel even happier!  We had a little scare on Mitchell's second night in the world, and he had to stay in the NICU for an additional 48 hours for rapid breathing.  Luckily I only had to stay away from him for 1 night, and was able to go back and forth from the hospital to nurse him.  We received excellent care from the nurses and doctors there, and thankfully Mitchell was perfectly happy and healthy when we brought him home on Friday.  Mack was hesitant at the hospital meeting Mitch, but he has warmed up rather nicely at home.  Mitch is already a very good baby.  He is a pro at nursing, and lots calmer than Mack was at this age.  Needless to say, I'm enjoying every minute of my maternity leave, and getting to know our newest baby angel!
