he's finally here!

Sorry I haven't been back, ladies! Its been a rough week. Let me apologize for my poor punctuation in.advance... I am on my kindle. I went to the Dr for my regular appointment on Tuesday morning. My bp was pretty high, so she told.me.we were gonna have a baby today or tomorrow. She asked me to go on over to the hospital. Well... I got here at 1pm on Tuesday and by 3:45 they started me on cytotek. They broke my water at 7 am on wednesday and after three doses of cytotek and Max dose of.pitocin and 36 hours r, I was only dilated to a 7.... and had been there over 4 hours. It was now 3am on Thursday. My Dr (she.is soooo nice) came and told.me we needed to.decide if we wanted to carry on with the labor or do a c-section. We talked about it and decided. That would be the best route to go. Either way, he needed to be out in a few more hours anyway. At 4:03 am, Blake Preston was delivered by c-section. He weighed 4lbs 15.7oz and was 16 inches long. He's just a widdle feller. He was 36 weeks gestaational age. They rounded up to 5lbs for his official weight. He's a champ though! He was on forced oxygen for only a couple hours and is doing great in the nicu. He is trying to nurse, but ive not got much for him yet. Here are a couple pictures... sorry not clicky!

  • Thank you, Tisha! And thank you all! Update: I was released Saturday afternoon. Blake is still in the nicu. They are allowing me to board until he is released as well. I had Brad put the carseat base in my car and bring the carseat in today (power of positive thinking!) because I don't feel comfy climbing into the truck yet. Looks like tomorrow we will probably take him home. Labwork wasn't back before Dr made rounds this morning, so we just have to be a little patient!
  • Congrats!  I love the name.  I hope that he gets to come home soon!
