I can't believe that my baby is already one week old!! It has flown by so fast! The first couple days were a little tough. Mom and baby were having feeding issues, but thanks to a lactation specialist we are great now (EVERYONE who has a baby should go see a lactation specialist right after birth. Nursing isn't as natural as you think it will be). Ben had a bit of jaundice after he was born so we had to put him under lights for a night, but he made it through. Now he sleeps and eats like a dream. Scott and I are still a little shell shocked about being parents. Ben caught us a little off guard by coming ten days early. But we are thrilled he is here and are loving every minute with him.

Haha! Oh boy, Ben totally looks like Scott!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful baby boy, congrats again my darlings!
wow what an angel! I wish you could take pics of my baby for me. I try to do "photo shoots" and none of them ever turn out, so I will just stick to what I do best, which is nothing special. Congrats on making it through the first week like a pro, and I am so glad you are all doing well! He really is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteWow, what a cute kid! I agree, he totally looks like Scott. I'm so happy for you guys! Hope everything is going well!
ReplyDeleteWOW! What wonderful pictures of our latest grandson! Can't wait to see him in person, we're coming as soon as we can. You can tell mom is a professional photographer.
ReplyDeleteSo proud!!!
I totally agree about the lactation consultant. I had one come too and it was the best money spent. Also, he looks so much like Scott. Congrats! Being a mommy is the best ever!
ReplyDeleteThese pics look like they were taken by a pro photographer. Oh, wait...
ReplyDeleteScotty & Britta-
ReplyDeleteLittle Ben is unbelievably beautiful! These shots are adorable--how fun to finally take pics of your own sweet boy! We are happy that all is going well! Lots of love to you, Nicole & Jeff and girls
WooHoo! He's here! Sooo adorable. Congrats to you both. I hope you're loving every minute of it... or at least most of the minutes... well, maybe the daytime minutes! :) Love ya, Am
ReplyDeleteWhat a cute little Scott baby!!! Britta it's a good thing he came out of you, he has dad's looks so he must have his mom's sense of humor and we just can't see that in the picture.
ReplyDeleteI'm holding out for your eyes though, come on bright blue!
Wow! Congrats! It seems like everything went well. He's just gorgeous! And I'm hopping on the "he looks just like Scott" bandwagon. Adorable!!
ReplyDeleteCongrats again! I love these pics Britta. He is such a cutie. I'm glad you were able to meet with a lactation specialist...aren't they miracle workers?!
ReplyDeleteHope all is well and that you are catching some sleep here and there. Love you!
