No More Tears

Owen is one tough little guy.

For about the 1st 48 hours of his life, he never cried.  Never.

I asked the doctor if it was something we should be worried about, and he told me that he isn't worried about it.  He said sometimes you'll see a baby have the face like he is crying but nothing comes out....in those cases they investigate to see if the baby has vocal paralysis.  Owen never made a face like he was crying.

The doctor told me that he gave him a shot in the heel, and instead of crying Owen just opened up his eyes and looked at the doctor straight in his eyes as if to say, "What in the world are you doing?". 

Here are things he went through without crying:
-Birth
-Shots
-IV in his hand (which he accidentally pulled out.....which led to.....)
-IV in his foot
-Circumcision (yes, no tears during even that ordeal)

This is what finally got him to cry:
-Bath

We have one of the calmest babies that the hospital has ever seen.  We are truly blessed, excited about this adventure.
