Stella Katherine, March 31, 2010, 6:47pm, 8lbs. 8oz., 20 1/4 inches long


Long story short, my induction lasted 36 hours, start to finish, and ended in a c-section b/c Little Stella was stuck against my pubic bone and wouldn't budge. I had an epidural on day 2 (which I LOVED). When I went into surgery it didn't retake so I had to have a spinal done. It's been a very long few days, but we are so in love with her. DH has been so amazing and I am so in awe of him as a Dad already. And I think I'm a pretty good Mom, too ![]()
Breastfeeding is going pretty well. Stella is great at latching on once we get in the right position.
Recovery is going ok, I'm still in the hospital and will be discharged Saturday. Now Stella is in the nursery, my Percocet just came so I'm off to try and get some rest. I will be back soon with tons of questions, I'm sure!
Thanks for all the well wishes on FB!
