A baby boy.
Four hours labour.
Father already bonding with baby as he phones us. I could hear the baby noises and he said he was holding him as he rang.
I don't know the weight.
He has some hair.
No name yet and my suggestion that he be called "homeless" did not go down well.
He asked that I don't see the baby yet because I'm sick.
Two hours and he's a concerned parent. There's light at the end of the tunnel.

Yes there is. Congratulations to them and to you for all you've put up with!
dear great Great-Aunt, stay sick, for a long time (cough cough). Babies all look the same. Don't let them near you.
Four hours labour. That's my kind of birth. Perhaps this really will be a turning point for the nephew.
@ Marshall Stacks, all babies do NOT look the same.
PS "Homeless" would be a terrible name! He'd be much better off with Joe or Jeff or Steve or David....Sam, Alex.....
Kath, I still have no details about weight or name but he does have reddish hair which will probably fall out. I haven't even seen a phone photo.
Stacks, I feel like death and I recommend Werther's originals for soothing a glass encrusted throat. I've never been interested in babies, I like them when they talk.
River, as far as I know he's still "nameless". I thought all babies looked alike for about a month but then I try not to look at any.
Apparently the four hours was not easy and she needed stitches at least I think she did. I'm not getting much information here.
I do hope you get better soon. I don't do small babies very well, much better later.
I am a great aunt. Wasn't a good aunt and am now a great aunt. And, which scares me mightily my oldest great niece is of voting age.
Love Marshall Stacks comment... or they could call him "Sue" How do you Do?
EC, I just realised that he'll be 40 at the end of next month. My sister and I both married and had boys when we were very young.
MC, he now has a name, Cain and he's only 43 centimetres long which is why he looks so tiny in his father's hands. I'm waiting for the photos still.
