Skreedrake's LO stats and story

Just got this:

Thanks for keeping everyone updated, J! I'm in quite a bit of pain, but doing alright. Elle is in the NICU but is doing great. I came in for an NST because of decreased movement at 3:15 pm and had Elle via emergency c-section at 4:03 pm. She had a bleed somewhere and was bleeding into me, so it was a very good thing we came in when we did... Another couple of hours and she probably would not have made it. I can't get that thought out if my head, and am already thinking I need to talk to a therapist about it.... It was the scariest day of my life!

Anyway, onto the good stuff! Elle Rose was born on 12/7/2013 at 4:03 pm. She weighs 5 lbs 10 oz and is 18.5 inches long. We are so in love!

  • This seriously brought tears to my eyes. I am so glad you are ok and your sweet LO is here safely. T&Ps for a short nicu stay. I know she seems tiny, but thats a good size baby for an early baby, so that's positive.

  • And yes, a therapist sounds like a good idea. I know I would need one! I wonder if the hospital has someone on staff you could talk to...

  • As I said on facebook, don't focus on the what-ifs. You trusted your gut because you are a great momma and as PP said, she was obviously meant to be here. Definitely seek therapy if you need it. I can only imagine how scary that situation was, but I am so glad she is here! Welcome to the world Elle Rose! :)

  • I had a hard time with the way my birth went, too. Definitely take care of yourself!! It's hard to imagine the flood of emotions you experience after birth, especially when it was traumatic.

    But, she is absolutely beautiful and you are tough mama! Congrats!!
