BABBY FORMED BY METAFILTER
It all started with an innocuous comment on MetaChat almost six years ago.
One thing led to another, and now I'm very pleased at announce there is a whole other person on the planet!
This is Henry, the first baby (I think) born to folks who met on MetaChat. More pics here. He was born via a dramatic emergency c-section on August 24th at 3.11 PM, 6 lbs 5 oz.
If there was no MetaFilter there would be no MetaChat, so thank you, MetaFilter, from proud parents Specklet and TheDonF!

So, so beautiful. Big congratulations to all of you and I'm so glad all the drama had a happy ending!

What a cool story, and he is absolutely beautiful. Welcome, Henry! May his birth be as much emergency drama that your family has to experience together.

All babies are beautiful. And I know you're supposed to say that all babies are cute. But, objectively, that's not always true, even if it's not polite to say so.
But gosh darn that is one cute freakin' baby!* Like "makes me ignore my 'babies for you = none' wiring for a surprising number of seconds" cute. I keep wanting to link to my favorite picture but I love them all.
* language cleaned up because swearing about babies seems weird

My boyfriend is a mefite, and we met at a metafilter meetup. And I believe the Chicago crowd has at least one more mefimance aside from us.
How many formed-by-metafilter couples are there? This is a statistic I'd like to know.

When you consider the number of MeFi widows (my wife) and the people that have been DTMFA'd by AskMe the net impact of Metafilter on couplings is an extremely negative number, Baby Specklet notwithstanding.
Mefites, it's up to you to restore the balance and get couplin' up. I'll count you off: 1,2,1,2,1,2...

A goodly number. And many on MetaChat as well - maybe even a higher proportion, given the smaller size of that site - some that have lasted, some that have not. I met my partner on MetaChat but so far we have produced no babbies.
Speck's lil child is indeed a nubbinly one. Congrats again!

Happy Belated birthday, Baby Henry! Your Mom and Dad will have a really cool story to tell you one day about how they met each other!
Emergency C sections are not the most fun happy way to have babby, though. Hope you are doing well, Mama! If you ever want to vent about it, or if you are concerned about anything during your recovery, feel free to Mefimail me!
I had two C-sections, and one was an OMG,YOU ARE EIGHT CENTIMETERS AND THE BABY IS FOOTLING BREECH WE HAVE TO DO THIS NOWNOWNOW! emergency.*
*That baby is 6'4" tall now. So, fair warning!

Congrats! This was obviously destined to happen, given that you also laid down some solid child-rearing advice in that same original MetaChat:
They eat a special mixture consisting of honey, various kinds of baby food, instant rice cereal, wheat germ, vitamins, etc, as well as a daily serving of fresh veggies, fresh fruit, and live meal worms.posted by Panjandrum at 3:22 PM on September 5, 2012 [10 favorites]
They need quite a lot of attention, and quite a lot of patience. They are wild animals, and although they will bond with a human very strongly, it takes time and diligence. I've had mine for two months now, and we're only getting to the point where I can pick them up without them getting defensive/nippy.
They're adorable, though, and once bonded to you will climb all over you, play with your hair, and sleep in your shirt.
Oh noway!! Wow!! I didn't know there was a babby on the way!! Congrats sweetie! He's a cutie!

Yay! Thanks for all the wonderful comments :) Although we met on MetaChat, we almost certainly wouldn't have been on that site if it wasn't for Metafilter. Strangely, we signed up for accounts here within three days of each other back in 2004. I'm sure Specklet will comment in here later, but she and Henry are fast asleep at the moment. I wish I was as well, but work—augmented by large amounts of caffiene—is calling.

Awesome and congrats! I really feel like MeFi helped put me in a good place when our wee man was born 21 months ago! (wow it goes fast...savor it.)
Hopefully none of the super cheery folk from this thread decide to poop on your party.

Neat story!
Congratulations.
Henry's a charmer.
I met my husband on Metafilter and we have a very promising young spawn.
