Well, we have had an interesting last few days. I went to Children's Hospital for a tour and to meet the surgeon on Wednesday, July 15. Wow, Children's is incredible and Dr. Forbess our surgeon is wonderful! We are truly blessed to be here in Dallas.
I then woke up at 4:30am on the 16th, to have my water break. I made it to Baylor with plenty of time, but I must say..."You women out there that have natural labor; You Rock!" I was only dilated to a 3 and that was enough for me. I did get an epidural and the csection began around 6am.
Natalie was born at 6:31am. She is 5lbs 9oz and is beautiful! I did get to spend plenty of time with her before she was transferred to Children's. I know I am partial, but I am think she recognized my voice when I talked to her. The transport team was great and there was even a gentleman who grew up in Amarillo.
Natalie is stable and doing great over at Children's. There is a chance she may not be required to have the first surgery, but we will not know fore sure for several days. The doctors took her off some medicine and will be closely monitoring her for before they let us know anything. She seems perfectly happy and content!
I am hoping to get out of the hospital this weekend and will be with her again. I have gotten to see her virtual crib and when I figure out where my camera is, I will get a picture of it, because it is really cool.
I hope everyone has a blessed day! God once again should me no matter how I try to plan something, even a scheduled csection, He has is own perfect plan. God is awesome, what can I say!
Libby, thanks so much for sending me your blog. Wow! Give everyone my love an support. JimB
