Dear Friends and Family,
Well last night they said they would send me home in the morning but after talking a while with the doctor in the a.m. she felt it would be best to go ahead and do a c-section. It was a wait to make sure all the morphine had worn off. They then put the monitors back on. I was contracting every 3 minutes and intensely... yet still no change in my cervix.
So... we went ahead with the section. It was a total success and I felt fine! Praise God!
Peter Joel arrived at 2:41 p.m. today on November 7th. He is 19.8 inches long and 9 lbs, 4 oz. He's absolutely beautiful.
I have yet to hold him because he needed to go to the special care nursery. His blood sugar level is low and he has a heart murmur. I'm not concerned but am excited to be able to hold him soon (I hope).
He has gorgeous dark hair, chubby cheeks, and a beautiful round face. he looks like a doll!
Resting now. Only got 3 hours of sleep last night. Hoping to catch up before I start caring for our new little man.
Thanks for your prayers!
