Oh, boy! The proud dad’s smitten with his gorgeous addition.
He is affectionately known as Little Dylz from Three’s reality TV series The Block NZ, but now Dylan Guitink has a little Dylz of his own.
The 27-year-old and his partner Emily Phibbs, 22, welcomed Laiken Antony Guitink into the world just eight weeks ago and while it’s been a big adjustment for the first-time parents, Baby Dylz has completely captured their hearts.
“He’s the best baby we could have asked for,” says proud mum Emily. “I guess we’re quite laid-back and he seems to have got that from us.”
Happy and healthy now, Laiken – who was born on May 25, weighing 3.15kg and whose name was inspired by a contestant on The Voice Australia – gave his parents a scare at 33 weeks when Emily experienced a preterm premature rupture of membranes (PPROM). It’s a term used when the waters break before the 37th week.
“We were out watching the Chiefs game and suddenly Emily says something’s not right,” recalls Dylan.
Emily explains, “It wasn’t gushing, but it was enough for me to think something was going on, so we went to hospital. Everything ended up being fine. I had to go backwards and forwards to hospital three times a week until I was 38 weeks to make sure Laiken wasn’t born prematurely – and after all that, he ended up going a few days over full term!”
