Courtney Thorne Smith has a boy!
Categories: Pregnancy & Birth, Celeb Kids, Celeb Parenting
If you are making a list of celebs who did not have a baby yesterday, don't include Courtney Thorne Smith. She and her husband Roger Fishman welcomed their first child yesterday in Los Angeles. He weighed in at 6 lb. 13 oz. and has been named Jacob 'Jake' Emerson Fishman.
Despite carrying the baby almost two weeks longer than anticipated, the actress reportedly refused to be induced and gave birth naturally - after nearly 12 hours of labor. A source close to the couple said yesterday, "She is happily breastfeeding at the moment and bounced back so fast from her delivery ordeal that she has been given the 'all clear' to leave the hospital tonight if she wants." I don't know if she is home already, but I do remember that I regretted leaving the hospital too soon after Christy was born. I wished I had stayed and gotten at least got one good night of sleep before all the craziness began.
I like the name Jacob, but it doesn't score any points for originality. It made the number three spot on the BabyCenter.com list of top 100 baby names of 2007.

I didn't realize there was such a thing as a good night's sleep in the hospital. People coming in to check on you all night, traffic in the hallway and all the baby and birth related stuff of course. Restful, it was not.
