Hi ladies!! Miss Sa.wyer Isa.bel arrived this morning via RCS at 8:10am and is a luscious 11lbs and 22.75" long! Omg!! Still can't believe I have an 11lber, lol!
We went to the hospital at 5:30am to get the party started with IVs, labs and anesthesiology instructions. This was my third section and it was an incredible, peaceful birth full of love and excitement. My doctors and nurses were amazing, I was surprised I made it to my scheduled date but I am so glad I did because everything went so well. I got my spinal placed at about 7:40am, with my previous sections I had nausea, headaches, the shakes...but this time none of that which I was so grateful for. Baby arrived at 8:10am and she is the biggest baby my doctor has ever delivered!
I did a gentle section so we had a clear drape (they had a blue drape as well but dropped it when they took baby out) so I got to see her before the cord was cut which was amazing- I have never gotten to experience seeing my kids right after being pulled out and I'm glad we did a clear drape. I got skin to skin after her apgar. She does have a bit of fluid in her lungs that she swallowed on her way out and we are having to closely monitor her blood glucose because of her size but other than that we are doing great! br]
