Last night, my wife gave birth to our beautiful baby girl. Little Anita was born at 9:40 PM weighed 6 lbs 3 oz and was 17.5 inches long. Kimia went into labor at 4:50PM, so the labor was less than 5 hours long, which is really quick for a first birth. I attribute this almost completely to the fact that Kimia was trying hard to be active, often times going on 2-3 hour walks daily, for almost her entire pregnancy. She was also trying hard to be healthy by eating right, so despite the fact that she had gestational diabetes our baby girl was teeny tiny, and wasn't one of those massive babies that take forever to push out. I am so proud of Kimia and the baby. They are doing great! On the running front nothing much happened. I was starting to come down with something, and staying up for the majority of the night pushed me over the edge, so I was not feeling well all day long, and ultimately decided not to run as I was going to do a shortened run anyhow. |
