Chloe Madeleine Solomon was born on May 19th, 1999 at 4:05am. Without getting into too much gory detail, everything went exceptionally well. When the labor finally started around 2:30am it went very very quickly. Mother and daughter are doing well. Baby gained about a pound in the first week.
We got a sleeper!
You heard right! She sleeps much of the day, waking only to have snacks. At night she eats until about 10pm or 10:40pm and then she's out for about five hours. Then she's awake for about 30 minutes and out for another five hours! This isn't so hard to handle. Our first one was very difficult and wouldn't let you put him down even when he was fast asleep. It was a little nightmarish.
Fortunately, that's all behind us.
