This is a copy and paste from our blog:
This last week they tried to wean me
off the magnesium and send me home. It didn't work and so I had an
emergency c-section yesterday.
Not from blog:
I am okay. In a bit of pain and a little sad. I just feel like I really let my kids down but I know that is silly and that I did my best. I'll stay in the hospital until Monday. Harmon won't get to meet his sibling for a couple of months probably. The nurses and doctors say they will probably come home mid October.
Re: Cupcakes are here...
