Little Hank's birth was on TV last night

Kendra showed us the good, the bad and the ugly last night as her big baby boy was born. What a time we live in, huu? Anyway, I really enjoyed this episode of Kendra. She had her whole family there and Hanks family too. She didn't have a vanity birth, she had a birth just like the rest of us. It was scary and exciting. I could tell she was scared shitless and she was pretty brave. They finally took the baby by C section because he was really big and his head was swelling due to pressure.

I could see the relief in her tired swollen face when that baby finally arrived and the look of wonder we all get, like, is he really mine? It was all very moving. Hank cried as he held his new son. Hank seems like a real stand up guy and I hope he never turns out to be like most atheltic stars. He seems so genuine and happy with Kendra. A high light was Kendra's grandmother holding the baby, rocking him, saying welcome to this big old world, you'll get used to it. It was all very sweet...they seem like such a nice family. He's a pretty baby and over 9 pounds, oh my. I hope they call him by his real name, Henry. But, they'll probably call him Hanky.

I dvr'd it, can't wait to watch it later. She just had him a little over a week ago, I can't believe it's already on tv!

I watched that show last night, too. I have to say that there were some scenes that brought tears to my eyes. I like Kendra and Hank a lot, Hank really does seem like a great guy.
Although I don't agree with allowing a camera to record intimate moments as it did last night, I wish their little family a lifetime of happiness.

I saw a little bit of this morning. I dvr it last night. It was nice to see that Kendra is down to earth more. I like her even better than in girls next door. She is going to be a great mother. Oh the Lady bug braclet scene. I almost cried. That was so sweet of hank to do that.

I hope to watch the rest tonight when ava is in bed. I cant wait to see the baby. I saw the people pics. Wonderfuly done you can just feel the love. Some pictures you see love. But with kendra and Hank you can feel it.

I like the way she's NOT glamorous or sexy right now. Luggin her explosvie belly out of bed and belching. So ugly and real. She's seems like a good kid.

I loved the part when Hank said he falls in love with her again everyday.

They are such a great couple. They really love each other very much and you can feel that.

I love Kendra because she is just her and not pretending to be something she isn't.

I missed the first part, but saw the birth itself. I think she will be a great mommy....

I'm glad Kendra's Mom came around to the fact that Kendra is a married mother now. She had a really tough time when she found out about K's pregnancy before the wedding. It was nice seeing both families there for the birth.
That said, her grandma is the cutest little thing. She will support Kendra and Hank in everything they do. She's awesome.

Can I rent that house when they move back to Cali? Wow.

I watched it and got major tears when her Grandma was at the door. I get a "real" feeling from them. I hope they make it. They seem genuine and regardless of her past, I think she will make a good Mom. Hank is a big old softy and so in love with her. Her baby was so big. My first son was a 10 pound emergency c-section so even though she wanted a natural birth, she should be happy she didn't go that route.

I was never into the Girls Next Door, or any of that, but reading this post about the grandma rocking their baby just makes me so teary.
I am a labor nurse, and often see a birth a day, or sometimes more, but this one sounds very special.

I'll be in the minority and say I think she's disgusting. The way she whores that kid out is gross. Did it the whole time he was a fetus and apparently plans to do it for the rest of his life too.

You sure have the right to your opinion. I can't help but like her though.

I cried when the Great Granny held the baby. it made me think of my grandmother and how much she loved all the grandkids.
