Hunter... His First Day

I read somewhere on the internet about a girl that had a baby and wanted to undertake a challenge to post at least one photo of the baby for every day of the first year of her life so she would have a record of how much and how quickly the baby changed. I thought that was a great idea so I have decided to do the same thing with Hunter. I will take at least one photo everyday. I might not update everyday, but there will still be one photo for each day.

Day 1




The first pic is taken at less than an hour old, after they had cleaned him up and I'd had a cuddle I asked what he weighed so they plunked him on the scales for me. I had expected him to be about 7lb... was very surprised when he came up a touch over 8lb!! The second pic is a close up of his birth weight. My little chubba bubba! The third pic was taken a couple of hours later after I came back from surgery and they got me up and dressed and feeling slightly human again! He was dressed (or half dressed, as the stupid bulky nappy they had on him made it hard to button up his little wondersuit the whole way) and then they gave him to me for a feed and another cuddle. Rob went a bit mad taking pics, lol. How do I look for someone who gave birth about 5hrs previously? :P
